To Rise Again at a Decent Hour by Joshua Ferris Book Summary

Shortlisted for the Man Booker Prize, this big, brilliant, profoundly observed novel by National Book Award Finalist Joshua Ferris explores the absurdities of modern life and one man's search for meaning.

Paul O'Rourke is a man made of contradictions: he loves the world, but doesn't know how to live in it. He's a Luddite addicted to his iPhone, a dentist with a nicotine habit, a rabid Red Sox fan devastated by their victories, and an atheist not quite willing to let go of God.

Then someone begins to impersonate Paul online, and he watches in horror as a website, a Facebook page, and a Twitter account are created in his name. What begins as an outrageous violation of his privacy soon becomes something more soul-frightening: the possibility that the online "Paul" might be a better version of the real thing.

As Paul's quest to learn why his identity has been stolen deepens, he is forced to confront his troubled past and his uncertain future in a life disturbingly split between the real and the virtual.

At once laugh-out-loud funny about the absurdities of the modern world, and indelibly profound about the eternal questions of the meaning of life, love and truth, To Rise Again at a Decent Hour is a deeply moving and constantly surprising tour de force.

Entertaining Read!. Almost didn’t buy because of some of the negative reviews. Read an excerpt and was immediately hooked. To me was even better than his first book. If you like “real life” type stories with a quirky twist then i think you’ll really like this book. Easy read, breezed through in a weekend.

Simply perfect. Sparkling, brilliant, irreverent, trenchant, hilarious, provocative...simply perfect.

Great Book. It's a good book without any flaws. Would recommend it.

Sample chapter better than book. I really enjoyed reading the sample chapter, but I couldn't get much further into the actual book. It was just really blasé after the first few chapters---took a long time to build any conflict, too many tangential story lines

Great ending but so slow. Would not recommend. I found myself skipping over several pages because they ran on.

Really Unsatisfying. Neurotic New York dentist questioning faith, religion and himself. And it gets worse from there.
