xDiscontent
Author's name: Beatriz Serrano
"Witty, biting, and merciless... it reveals a new and dazzling comedic talent in European literature."
— The Telegraph
Marisa doesn't just hate work... she hates the life that is imposed on her every morning!
For anyone who works and feels that life is silently conspiring against them:
On the surface, Marisa lives a perfect life in Madrid, having achieved rapid success at a prestigious advertising agency. But behind this glittering facade, she's sinking into a dark abyss of existential anxiety, spending her days numb and wishing she'd be hit by a car so she could finally get a vacation!
Everything is threatened with collapse when she's forced to participate in the annual "team-building" trip. Isolated in the Spanish mountains, surrounded by a psychopathic boss and the ghosts of a buried past, her artificial social facade is pushed to the brink, until all the contradictions explode at once!
"Discontent" is a dark, satirical, and provocative comedy. It exposes the anxiety we bury for eight hours a day, and shows how explosive it can be when it surfaces.
Are you ready to face the anxiety we bury for eight hours a day?
A darkly satirical novel in its literary debut... a fresh look at the psyche of a frustrated workforce.
— The New York Times
“In a change to the phrase ‘pretend to succeed,’ Marisa comes up with a new slogan: ‘Pretend until they leave you alone’... Very funny... Read in one sitting.”
— Library Magazine
