description: The New and Improving Thomas rides the ups and downs of a disillusioned San Francisco hipster as he moves to L.A. and attempts to transform himself from a hedonistic rock-n-roll musician into a rigid, career-minded conformist. This timely novel of troubled self-reinvention dresses an underlying satire on individualism and personal freedom in a dry wit that crackles from beginning to end.
