Luminous Airplanes - Paul La Farge

Despite the name it never really took off. I could identify to a degree as the main character, an IT tech, was sorting through some conflicted feelings with work, living situation and life. His brooding was an interesting peek into his thoughts, though the sorting through the past didn't always go anywhere worthwhile. One of those journeys that doesn't really have a particular conflict or resolution - the only interesting event that occurred during the book then got dropped and not really further explained. Well-written but a little disappointing after the initial promise.
