Service by John Tottenham
A darkly comic novel about a forty-something journalist who, after the collapse of print, takes a job at a bookstore in a rapidly gentrifying Los Angeles neighborhood. Through his caustic attempts to write and the humiliations of service work, the book skewers gentrification, aging, professional envy, and the uneasy place of literature in the digital era.
