Product info

<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><b>A <i>New York Times</i> Notable Book of the Year</b><br><b>A <i>Publisher's Weekly</i> Best Book of the Year</b> <p/>Combining the wit of David Lodge with Poe's delicious sense of the macabre, these are three witty, spooky novellas of satire set in academia--a world where Derrida rules, love is a complicated ideological position, and poetic justice is served with an ideological twist.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"Entirely delightful . . . wickedly funny . . . There hasn't been a genuinely adroit novel of academic manners since Randall Jarrell's<i> Pictures from an Institution</i>." --<i>Jonathan Yardley, The Washington Post Book World</i> <p/>"Original, droll, startling . . . Witty and penetrating: Hynes creates pungent satires of academic life while at the same time infusing them with genuine suspense and real terror." --<i>Kirkus Reviews</i> <p/>"A perfect blend of dark comedy and the ghost story, reminiscent of the best of T. C. Boyle and the best of Poe." --<i>David Treuer, The Minneapolis Star-Tribune</i> <p/>"Hynes must have struck a pact with the devil when he began writing these tales because their tone is perfect." --<i>Maureen Corrigan, National Public Radio</i> <p/>"Riveting . . . exhilarating . . . a work of sheer joy." --<i>The New York Times Book Review</i> <p/>"Deliciously creepy novellas . . . Hynes's writing is diamond sharp, revealing his characters' souls as surely as a Judgement Day angel." --<i>Amy Waldman, People</i></p><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p><b>James Hynes</b> is the author of <i>The Wild Colonial Boy</i> and <i>The Lecturer's Tale</i>, a <i>New York Times</i> Notable Book. His television criticism has appeared in <i>Mother Jones</i> and the <i>Utne Reader</i>. He lives in Austin, Texas.</p>
