Description: "A hasty bet precipitates a swap in identities and Nick Torrente -- ex-gigolo, ex-ex-patriot -- comes from Rome, Italy, to Acopolis, New York, to teach English literature at Parthenon College, ""a third-choice alma mater for the hopelessly degraded and inexorably stupid"". Parthenon or Oxford, Nick is still the holder of no degree at all, not even a high school diploma... And the going is somewhat rough for a while. A pointed, satirical novel"--Kirkus reviews.
