520 $aFor Ben Hudnut, the hero of Carkeet's delightful new novel, life has been good. A self-made business success and a happily married father of four, he cannot fathom that he is about to become a modern-day suburban Job. A casual affair that happened a decade ago is about to return to haunt him; his gourmet nut business is in unsuspected jeopardy; and his eldest daughter just may be involved with one of her high school teachers.
520 8 $aAcross town, unemployed linguist Jeremy Cook is stumbling through his own version of life, wondering just where he belongs - certainly not in Ben Hudnut's world, which he is about to enter. What follows is a rich comedy of errors, a literary entertainment that will only enlarge Carkeet's devoted following.
