<DIV><B>An underachieving engineer building a fighter plane faces a life-changing decision in this Vietnam-era novel perfect for fans of Kurt Vonnegut, Joshua Ferris, and Joseph Heller.</B><BR /> &#160;</DIV><DIV>This furious, slapstick tale has been praised by the<I> New York Times </I>as one of the &ldquo;best and brightest&rdquo; novels about the Vietnam War. We follow the travails of Harvey Brank and his fellow employees, all undrafted malcontents working in a spectacularly small-minded, almost Kafkaesque engineering company. Assigned to build a fighter plane and drawn into office intrigues, Brank faces impossible demands. His wife, despairing of his patchy employment history and restlessness, hopes against hope that Brank won&rsquo;t get himself fired this time. But what do you do when everything conspires against your vision of a decent, peaceable life?<BR /><BR /><I>Easy and Hard Ways Out</I> is a blunt, freewheeling look at the men who stay home during wartime&mdash;a story about the everyday, with a timeless moral at its heart.&#160;</DIV>
