Four people meet on a roof top where they are going to commit suicide, but they make a pact to stay in touch while they reconsider their decision. The book employs an interesting but sometimes confusing four-way narrative. While some of the characters don't elicit much sympathy and at times the story drags a little, there are some amusing moments in what is a wry and ultimately uplifting comedy.
