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.

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.

評分生活在云端,是现代都市人的真实写照,为工作奔波,来不及关心身边的亲人,等到回头才发现,失去了最珍贵的东西!
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。
