And our mouse pads, our desk clocks, our daily calendars, all the contents of our desk drawers. Even the photos of our loved ones taped to our computer monitors for uplift and support turned to cloying reminders of time served ...' Welcome to the world of Joshua Ferris' dazzlingly acute, brilliantly original, agonizingly funny novel. The dotcom bubble has just burst on an advertising agency on Chicago's Magnificent Mile. Employees shuffle slowly up the steps towards the revolving doors, afraid of what is waiting to greet them inside their cubicles ..."Then We Came to the End" is about how we spend our days and too many of our nights. It is about being away from friends and family, about sharing a stretch of stained carpet with a group of strangers we call colleagues. It is about sitting all morning next to someone you deliberately cross the road to avoid at lunchtime. Joshua Ferris' fabulous novel is the story of your life, and mine. It is the story of our times.Hide synopsis

The view point in the book can be wearying at times, but it creates a picture of something that almost all of us recognize, the modern office.
Like much good literature, it asks the question, "What in life is really important?" It, also, makes clear that the people we spend the most time with, our ...

A fascinating and enjoyable book (even if it did tend to drag at times). Seldom do we stop and think about the wonderful, interesting and sometimes trying relationships we develop through our work environment. The co-workers in this successful advertising firm form a family-like network bound to each ...

It truly is fun to read a novel set in my day to day world. This is Dilbert-esque in the perceptions and realities of what goes on in Corporate America. I laughed at the goings on because it was such a good, albeit sometimes caricatured, perspective on life in Cubeville: the gossip, the infighting, ...

One of the most amusingly snarky (yet heartfelt) first novels ever about, well, work -- vis a vis life, love, anger, marriage, community, protocol, stolen office chairs, and mysteriously bequeathed totem poles. Should be required reading for anyone who's ever typed away in a cube, and wondered if they ...
