What wouldn't you do to find stability? But, alas, it doesn't exist, and nothing is more permanent than the temporary. To achieve this, the heroine of the novel 'Temporary,' a resident of modern-day New York, must try a variety of jobs: from a shoe shiner at Grand Central Station to a pirate, from a window cleaner to a hitman's accomplice, from a ghost to the CEO of One Very Big Company. A parable book, a fairy tale book, an absurd book, into which you fall like Alice into a rabbit hole, like the main character into a witch's dungeon.
