To Rise Again at a Decent Hour Book

A dazzling Joshua Ferris novel that has been longlisted for the Man Booker Prize 2014, To Rise Again at a Decent Hour is a funny and contemporary story about the meaning of life, the certainty of death - and the importance of good oral hygiene... A dentist with a curmudgeonly attitude to life, 40-year-old Paul O'Rourke runs a thriving dental practice in New York. Yet despite this success in one of the world's greatest cities, he still wants more. He resolves to discover the meaning of life, a Facebook page and Twitter account appear in his name... At first, he's outraged before soon developing a pang of existential angst and worrying about his sanity - could the online 'Paul' actually be a better version of himself? And just who is behind the account? Fully deserving of its place on the Man Booker longlist, this is a smart and funny novel about modern society and the online world.Read More
