The fact that it will be Monday afternoon before this sees publication indicates that yes, it's a typical workday here in editorville. Life at work -- and grousing about it -- happens to be the theme of the last two novels I picked up. One is set at a struggling ad agency in a Chicago high-rise. The other is set at a failing chain restaurant in New England. Paired together, they say a lot about working life today. The entry "Monday morning review: "Then We Came to the End" and "Last Night at the Lobster"" is tagged: Joshua Ferris , Last Night at the Lobster , Stewart O'Nan , then we came to the end Here are the authors scheduled on the Dallas-based KERA program this week:
