Ryan Bingham’s job as a Career Transition Counselor–he fires people–has kept him airborne for years. Although he has come to despise his line of work, he has come to love the culture of what he calls “Airworld,” finding contentment within pressurized cabins, anonymous hotel rooms, and a wardrobe of wrinkle-free slacks. With a letter of resignation sitting on his boss’s desk, and the hope of a job with a mysterious consulting firm, Ryan Bingham is agonizingly close to his ultimate goal, his Holy Grail: one million frequent flier miles. But before he achieves this long-desired freedom, conditions begin to deteriorate.
With perception, wit, and wisdom, Up in the Air combines brilliant social observation with an acute sense of the psychic costs of our rootless existence, and confirms Walter Kirn as one of the most savvy chroniclers of American life.
From the Trade Paperback edition.

評分 評分书跟电影差距真的特别大，不知道为什么，总觉得跟《白鹿原》的电影原著有神似感： 电影对原著做了大量删节和改编，“两性关系”被提升到了重要地位，即电影中都平白无故多了一个漂亮诱人的女主角，但原著本身则并非是讲女人和男人的故事，《白》是从两大家族去窥视历史的变迁，...
評分我们的背包，我们的大房子、脚踏车、亲人、情人……当我们把他们都掏空，留给自己的，或许只剩旅行箱中的那件白衬衣了。
