A young woman's workplace is the size of the world. She fills increasingly bizarre placements in search of steadiness, connection, and something, at last, to call her own. Whether it's shining an endless closet of shoes, swabbing the deck of a pirate ship, assisting an assassin, or filling in for the Chairman of the Board, for the mythical Temporary, “there is nothing more personal than doing your job.”

I loved this! it was weird, dreamlike, and unexpected. The writing is so smart and witty, and the story manages to be both surreal and tangible. Without any spoilers, I couldn't have fathomed how to end a story like this but I loved the ending. This is the first book in a while that I walked down the street reading because I didn't want to put it down.
