Synopsis
'He reflected in future retrospect on the evening and foretold every gesture, every word. "I can't do it," he said. "I can predict everything that will happen from the moment they arrive to the little kiss on the cheek goodbye and I just can't goddamn do it."'
The Dinner Party immerses us in the comic and strange realities of modern life, as we journey through the lives of the unlovable, the unloved, and those who love too much: Jack, who nervously tries to befriend the surly removal man by buying him a latte and a croissant; Sarah, who endlessly imagines how her evening would have been better had she only chosen a different restaurant; Joe, who spends a night alone at the office and surreptitiously starts to rearrange his colleagues' belongings.
These are stories about the infinite possibilities of a person's life, from an agonizingly funny and original writer.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - Mit einer geradezu unheimlichen Menschenkenntnis schildert Joshua Ferris seine Grübler und Neurotiker, seine hochintelligenten und sensiblen Männer und Frauen, die so gern aus ihrer Haut möchten. Seine Stories beleuchten die absurden Seiten des Alltags und balancieren souverän auf dem schmalen Grat zwischen Komik und Tragik.Ein Pärchen bereitet sich auf die Dinnerparty mit einem anderen Pärchen vor, indem es über den zu erwartenden langweiligen Abend lästert - und wird unangenehm auf sich selbst zurückgeworfen, als die Gäste einfach ausbleiben. Ein Mann heuert einen Arbeiter für die Räumung seines Lagers an und lässt sich durch dessen Wortkargheit derart in Rage bringen, dass er ihn am liebsten tot sähe. Ein pensionierter Witwer in Florida erhält zum Geburtstag den Besuch einer Prostuituierten, den er schlecht verkraftet, ein hoffnungsvoller Fernsehautor verdirbt sich auf einer angesagten Hollywoodparty noch die letzten Chancen .
