Let Nothing You Dismay Paperback - 1999
by Mark O'Donnell
It's Christmas Eve Eve Eve Eve Eve in Manhattan--five days from holiday Ground Zero--but Tad Leary, the most confused man on Earth, doesn't know whether to celebrate at the five parties to which he's been invited, or just go crazy.
From the rear cover
Tad Leary has problems. Just fired from his job at a Manhattan private school, about to be evicted from his sublet, and stalled on his dissertation ("Social Hierarchies of Imaginary Places"), he wakes up on the Sunday before Christmas to realize he has seven parties to attend.
A trooper in jeans and a pressed white shirt, he sets off: for brunch with his eccentric family, an afternoon performance-art piece by a friend sporting little more than a tattoo of a goatee, a dinner party where he runs into an ex-girlfriend, a late-night soiree where he spars with an ex-boyfriend, and more. With a charming combination of wit, wisdom, and just a touch of cosmic panic, Tad charts a survivalist's course through Manhattan's social hierarchies.
