How
to be Good
by Nick
Hornby
"The pleasure of Hornby's amiably dyspeptic fiction lies in his sharp eye for the absurdities of contemporary culture. . . . [He] forces you to think about the tense bourgeois minuet between self-interest and morality, about the difference between applauding and doing good works. . . . The result is a farce that manages to be breezily hilarious and thought-provoking at the same time."
