Taking place over the course of a bus journey en route to a first date, Babak Ganjei’s debut novel charts the seemingly infinite disappointments, misunderstandings, and humiliations that have piled up over the course of narrator Bob Green’s life to date. Bob’s immediate circumstances, and the cast of characters with which he shares them, provide the imaginative jumping off point for digressions on teenage love, suburban ennui, pornography, race and identity, mobile phones, Converse, adult love, fatherhood, fast food, MF DOOM, the etiquette of bus seating and, perhaps most importantly of all, 'The Remains of the Day'. 'On the Bus Without A Phone' is unashamedly comedic and ultimately moving work from an original new writer.
