Please Be Advised (2022)
Christine Sneed
"In the tradition of Joshua Ferris's Then We Came to the End, Daniel Orozco's 'Orientation,' and Julie Schumacher's Dear Committee Members, Christine Sneed's Please Be Advised is more than a workplace comedy-it is a journey into the comic absurd. The pettiness, the MBA-speak, the TMI, the gratuitous acronyms and false cheer... the world of the office inbox is all there in its full reply-all apocalyptic glory. To make a solitary reader laugh out loud is one of the hardest tasks a writer can undertake; Sneed accomplishes this feat page after page, memo after memo, vignette after vignette, and emoji after emoji, leaving smile lines on your face and a cathartic joy in your heart."
