Unemployed, estranged from love and family, Doug wonders if redemption is possible in the throes of mid-life. It is, and therein lies the book's forgivable flaw. Without warning, the author seems to suffer a failure of nerve, as if the pain of his protagonist were too much for the reader (or perhaps the screen) to bear.

...editorial (A History of Futility, October 22) assailed the Undergraduate Council, calling grants allocation its only "serious function," and touting Big Fingers and chocolate milk as its only acomplishments.
