Publisher's Summary

How we hated our coffee mugs! Our mouse pads, our desk clocks, our daily calendars, all the contents of our desk drawers...

Then We Came to the End is about how we spend our days and too many of our nights. It is about being away from friends and family, about sharing a stretch of stained carpet with a group of strangers we call colleagues. It is about sitting all morning next to someone you deliberately cross the road to avoid at lunchtime.

Joshua Ferris' fabulous novel is the story of your life, and mine. It is the story of our times.

"Outstanding...incisive, urgent, funny, and snappily written...The comedy debut of the year." (Sunday Times)
"It's a long time since I've read a novel so painfully funny, or so absurdly true." (Craig Brown, Mail on Sunday)
Very funny, intense and exhilarating...For the first time in fiction, it has truly captured the way we work." (The Times)

Brilliant narration!

This novel captures the ridiculousness of corporate life with great wit and a touch of compassion. The narration is absolutely outstanding - the best I've heard - and brings every character to life perfectly.
