About this title

Synopsis

Taking a different approach, this novel has no story, no plot and no conflict. Instead, it gives a first-person account of that modern experience: working in an office. This is Nicholson Baker's first novel, though his stories have appeared in "The Atlantic" and "The New Yorker".
