Summary of Gary Shteyngart's Little Failure
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book.
Sample Book Insights:
#1 I graduated college in 1996, and that same year, I worked as a paralegal for a civil rights law firm. I was not cut out for the law, and I never will be. My parents were disappointed in me, and so was I.
#2 I would spend hours at the Strand Book Annex, searching for someone just like me on the back cover of a book. I was looking for the sloppy turn of phrase or the MFA cliché that would mark the book inferior to the one gestating in my office computer.
#3 I was in love with a woman who had already criticized my bookshelves for containing material that was either too lightweight or too masculine. I had spent four years after college without so much as kissing a girl. I was lonely.
#4 I began to panic when I thought about the girl I loved at the time. I saw her as a censor of my bookshelf and my tastes, and I thought about how she was taller than me and her gray teeth.
