   Jul 3, 2001 · Show comments. Saturated with smart irony and ripe with a sense of dislocation, this third novel from the fiction editor of GQ (Thumbsucker, 1999, etc.) takes readers on a frenetic tour of Airworld, that in-flight zone of business travel where destinations bleed invisibly into connections, and connections become stations along a perpetual journey.

   Is up in the air a good book?

   • “Up in the Air” is an assertively, and unapologetically, tidy package, from its use of romance to instill some drama into the narrative (the book introduces disease instead) and the mope-rock tunes that Mr. Reitman needlessly overuses.

   Is there a book on cities and airports by John Kasarda & Greg Lindsay?

   • I read this on the back of the book on cities and airports, Aerotropolis, by John Kasarda and Greg Lindsay. It was originally published in 2001, and in a twitchy present tense narrates a few days in the life of a consultant who seems to spend all his time at airports or in the air.

   The book received some good reviews and initially sold well until September 11, 2001 when sales slowed to a near halt. The cover with a cartoon of flying businesspeople (presumably reminiscent of The Falling Man) one of them on fire and hurtling earthward also hurt sales. Sales of the book were revived following Jason Reitman's film adaptation. [4]
