Small World: An Academic Romance
 Small World: An Academic Romance (1984) is a humorous campus novel by the British writer David Lodge. It is a sequel to Lodge's 1975 novel Changing Places.Small World uses the main characters (Professors Philip Swallow and Morris Zapp and their wives) from Changing Places and adds many new ones. It follows them around the international circuit of academic literary conferences. It is highly and self-reflexively allusive to quests for the Holy Grail especially to Spenser's Faerie Queene.
