If you like witty, snappy dialogue and being incredibly depressed, have I got a book for you! This book is a smart, honest look at a family disintegrating and a man trying to be really present for it all, but mostly failing. Parts are compulsively readable, and parts will maybe destroy you (if you're built like me, anyway). It's an awfully dark pick for these dark times. But, Foer has done something admirable here, and if you're up for it generally and specifically a fan of long, ponderous domestic fiction, it's worth the read.
