The Mezzanine by Nicholson Baker

The Mezzanine by Nicholson Baker

An electrifying and hilarious novel about the mundanity of office life, reissued for Granta Editions.

Hugely inventive..Baker is brilliant * Observer *
A seriously funny book -- Salman Rushdie
The Mezzanine's ambitions are as grand as its obsessions are small, and out of that disparity comes a refined and engaging chatter strung about great jokes. It''s also useful, full of debates about paper towels and putting on socks...Andy Warhol would have loved this book: he would have bought 2,000 copies just for a laugh. Everybody else should make do with just the one * Independent *
Baker's brilliant, hyper-stylish comedy of modern manners announces the arrival of a true original. His novel is a triumph of intellectual shock - the shock of the newly seen * Sunday Times *
Dazzling, energetic * TLS *
