Intensely irreverent, which gets the main protagonist Kurt Clausen, into mounds of trouble. He's too witty for his own good and his profession, journalism. For most of the book it depressed me because he gains a wonderful girlfriend, which I don't. That aside, a great look at journalism in the early 1990s, before the internet decimated newspapers. No Catch-22s, but very Joseph Hellerian humor, liller's book 'Something Happened'. All who have worked in corporations where their main goal is to drumb all individuality out of their employees, can relate.
