From the hilarious Booker-shortlisted author of To Rise Again at a Decent Hour 'He reflected in future retrospect on the evening and foretold every gesture, every word. "e;I can't do it,"e; he said. "e;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."e;'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.
