Author Description

"Eastern Technical College was not his first choice. That's where Eliot Becker, fresh out of grad school, goes to teach English. As a new adjunct instructor, he's assigned one class, 'the worst class with the worst students at the worst time of day.' Go to class with him. Walk the streets of the nearby farm town where he rents an apartment. Bag groceries with him at Pat's Food Center and check out the Falsies, the all-falsetto group he sings with at the Red Fox Bar for extra money. Can he fit in at Eastern Tech? Does he want that? Can he feel at home in a one-stoplight town? What does he really want?"--Back cover.
