This "finely balanced black comedy" (Guardian, UK) follows a midlevel corporate drone who finds himself in the throes of a midlife crisis.
Reggie Perrin has a cushy job as head of innovation in a men's body care products firm, but philosophically hates meaningless office life. He's equally unhappy with commuting, his dull marriage, his parents, his colleagues and especially his cry boss Chris. Yet he never does anything about this life, even tends to help his hated significant others out of a pickle.—KGF Vissers
