Another mordantly hysterical tale from the author of the cult favorite How I Became StupidA funny yet poignant tour of one young man s existential crisis, The Discreet Pleasures of Rejection is another short novel from France s Martin Page. Virgil comes home from work one day to a message on his answering machinehis girlfriend is breaking up with him. This news should be devastating, but instead it s deeply troubling, because Virgil doesn t know the woman and doesn t have any memory of being in a relationship with her. The event sends Virgile into a tailspin of unrelenting selfanalysis, causing him to question his memory, his sanity, even his worth as a lover. The seamless translation by Bruce Benderson perfectly captures Page s delicate, witty style, bringing this audacious gem of a novel to Englishspeaking audiences.
