The television show The Office meets Bridget Jones in a novel set in an office so dysfunctional, it’s bound to strike a chord with any nine-to-fiver. A compulsively readable, hilarious novel told through the e-mail messages of Martin Lukes. Martin Lukes is a man who is good at taking credit where it isn’t due; a man who works hard at “personal growth” but consistently lets down everyone around him; a man who communicates with his sons by e-mail and fails to notice how smart his wife, Jenny, really is; a man — in short — who loves jargon but totally lacks understanding.
