Was that one of the proposed Russian Book Club books?

It's very off-beat, it has a pop-intellectualism to it, it's a fast read and it's fun. There is perhaps a tiny element of sadness to it, but not really a very strong one. The Russian language version came with a CD with music on it that was related to the book - I'm not sure if the English-language version has that, but it's fun.
I've picked this up and looked at it a few times. It does indeed look like a good read. I'll try it soon. Thanks.
Plus, for some reason it's the only Pelevin book that women consistently seem to like.
Heh.

There is actually a book called that: Reader's Block. But it is not fun and simple.

Wilde, Pratchett or something similarly humourous and witty usually helps me at that point. *NM*
