The daily grind got you down? Escape into this Swedish dark comedy about a scaldingly contemptuous office drone who discovers a secret room in his workplace.-O: The Oprah MagazineThe inspiration for the upcoming feature film Corner Office, starring Jon HammBjrn is a compulsive, meticulous bureaucrat who discovers a secret room at the government office where he works-a secret room that no one else in his office will acknowledge. When Bjrn is in his room, what his co-workers see is him standing by the wall and staring off into space looking dazed, relaxed, and decidedly creepy. Bjrns bizarre behavior eventually leads his co-workers to try and have him fired, but Bjrn will turn the tables on them with help from his secret room.Debut author Jonas Karlsson doesnt leave a word out of place in this brilliant, bizarre, delightful take on how far we will go-in a world ruled by conformity-to live an individual and examined life.
