Title: I Got Lost
Review: "Lost" was a fun, fast-paced story in one of my favorite genres: the I'm-sure-glad-that's-not-me-but-I-can't-stop-reading-about-it genre, in the tradition of hapless protagonists since the beginning of time. Jeremy Keller is lost in his life, clueless enough to be pitied, but not so dumb that we lose interest in the mysterious turns his life has taken. Stein writes briskly and subtly; when the readers begin to accept all the absurdities in "Lost" as real life they gain another laugh at themselves. It's like getting your sleeve caught in some stranger's briefcase and being hopelessly dragged all over Manhattan, through his odd days and odder nights. Enjoy the trip!
