The Best Thing That Can Happen to a Croissant
by Pablo Tusset“Engaging and occasionally even uproarious. . . . The book is a pleasure precisely because it so brazenly sloughs off responsibilities to pacing, plot or emotional resonance. Rarely has such a winning story been built out of such a paean to the joys of slackerdom.” –Publishers Weekly
