Work

Bob Slocum is anxious, bored and fearful of his job. So why is it he wants nothing more than the chance to speak at the next company convention? In this darkly satirical book, Joseph Heller takes us for a turn on the maddening hamster wheel of work. Hellers workplace is a cradle of paranoia, bravado and nauseating banter, forever shadowed by that perennial question, whos really running the show here? In Hellers hands, our daily grind has never seemed so absurd.

Selected from the book Something Happened by Joseph Heller
