Publisher Description
Bob Jones is ordinary, from his appearance right down to his very name. No one seems to take notice of him, not his co-workers, his girlfriend, or even his own parents. But Bob learns he's not alone when he's taken in by a band of people that suffer similarly. Calling themselves "The Ignored", the deadly vengeance they intend to wreak is sure to make them more than just memorable...
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
At first it seems like a stroke of good luck when Bob Jones lands a job for which he is clearly unqualified. But his luck turns strange as Bob steadily fades from the attention of his coworkers. Within weeks, his arrival at work is marked by the absence of morning hellos. Work that he hasn't done piles up and no one seems to notice. So when Bob comes to work in a clown suit with knife in hand, and no one raises an eyebrow, it doesn't take us long to realize that Bob has been trapped in the Kafkaesque world of the Ignored--and this is just the beginning. With his artfully plain prose and Quixote-like narrative, Little dissects the deep and disturbing fear of anonymity all Americans feel towards what seems to be a cruelly faceless world. What Little (Dominion) has created, is nothing less than a nightmarishly brilliant tour de force of modern life in America.
