Somewhere along the line, our healthy self-regard has exploded into obliterating narcissism; our manic getting and spending have now become celebrated as moral virtues. Simultaneously a Wildean satire and a plea for a little human decency, \u003ci\u003e Don't Get Too Comfortable\u003c\/i\u003e shows that far from being bobos in paradise, we're in a special circle of gilded-age hell.","brand":"Knopf Doubleday Publishing Group","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48833701511373,"sku":"9780767916035","price":19.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0557\/1529\/9533\/files\/imageloader_32230072-f083-45bb-a96c-6dfcf7b79e37.jpg?v=1790894413","url":"https:\/\/booksatmidnight.com\/products\/dont-get-too-comfortable","provider":"Books At Midnight","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
