Publisher's Summary

The Waiter takes place entirely in a restaurant where everything from the menu to the cutlery is carefully thought out. Our narrator is a middle-aged waiter who takes pride in the classic and unchangeable aspects of his job: the well-worn waiter uniform, the ragged but solid tablecloths, and the regular diners. Some are there daily, like Graham “Le Gris” - also known as "The Pig" - and his group; the slightly more avant-garde drinking company around Tom Sellers; and the closest one can get to personal friends of the waiter, Edgar and his young daughter, Anna. 

In this universe unto itself, there is hardly any contact between the tables...until the beautiful and well-groomed “Child Lady” walks through the door and upsets the finely tuned balance of the restaurant and all it has come to represent....
