Dwight B. Wilmerding is only twenty-eight, but he's having a midlife crisis. Of course, living a dissolute, dorm like existence in a tiny apartment, and working in tech support at the pharmaceutical giant Pfizer are not especially conducive to wisdom. And a few sessions of psychoanalysis conducted by his sister have distinctly failed to help with his biggest problem: a chronic inability to make up his mind. Encouraged by one of his roommates to try an experimental pharmaceutical meant to banish indecision, Dwight jumps at the chance (not without some meditation on the hazards of jumping), and swallows the first fateful pill. And when all at once he is "pfired" from Pfizer and invited to a rendezvous in exotic Ecuador with the girl of his long-ago prep-school dreams, he finds himself on the brink of a new life. The trouble-well, one of the troubles - is that Dwight can't decide if the pills are working. Deep in the jungles of the Amazon, in the foreign country of a changed outlook, his would-be romantic escape becomes a hilarious journey into unbidden responsibility and unwelcome knowledge. "Indecision" rings with a voice of great energy and originality, while its deeper inquiries reflect the concerns and style of a generation. "Indecision manages to make the whole flailing, postadolescent, prelife crisis feel fresh and funny again...The funniest and smartest coming-of-age novel in years" - Jay McInerney, "The New York Times" Book Review. "He's got this voice that just grabs your attention and won't let go...Old Dwight's book really knocked me out" - Michiko Kakutani, "The New York Times".
