Synopsis
For Ben Hudnut, life has been good, but Ben is about to become a modern-day suburban Job. A casual affair that ended a decade ago is returns to haunt him; his business is on the verge of bankruptcy, and his eldest daughter may be involved with one of her high-school teachers. Enter Jeremy cook, fellow sufferer and determined linguist, and what follows is a rich, literary comedy of errors.
