Description
Frans Laarmans's job as manager of an Edam distribution company in Antwerp is a bureaucratic nightmare. Despite his dislike for cheese, he finds himself surrounded by an endless supply of the distinctive red-skinned cheeses with no idea how to sell them.
This comedic novel combines satire and pathos, revealing how an entrepreneurial spirit can often be a mask for buffoonery. As Frans struggles to progress beyond his limited skill set, Elsschot skewers the pomposity of big business.
A poignant and humorous portrayal of office life, Cheese is a relatable tale of one man's misadventures in the world of commerce.
