Just realized I had read The English Experience which is the third book in her trilogy and wasn't impressed. Hopefully this will be better!

In all honesty, I find the redundant nature of the narrative disappointing much as I had with the English Experience which was a total dud where I'm concerned. I think I'll quit while I'm ahead and cross this author off my list

This is really a fun story..Fitzger is the newly appointed English chair at Payne University (which is the ultimate pun since they charge staff to use their own conference room and other mind boggling things). He's as incompetent as they come yet erudite; a contradiction in terms if there was one..very funny stuff

This is like MASH but instead of a movable army unit. Payne university stays put and run by incompetent people that despise one another.. Very funny concept

A very pleasant surprise indeed and in some was reminiscent of Straight Man by Richard Russo but not as obtuse. Good characters, lots of sarcasm and a set up that beckons comedy
