Amazon.com description: Product Description:

A New York Times Notable Book of the Year
A Publisher's Weekly Best Book of the Year

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.
