Synopsis

"Dean Wreen is not having a good week.

Her college is in dire financial straits and a plan to close its tiny, all-but-forgotten natural history museum is sending unexpected shock waves through the local community.

At home, her ex-lover is staying with her - sending shock waves of a different sort through her relationship with her current (and much younger) girlfriend.

Town-gown relations are in tatters!

The local newspaper is erupting in violent protest!

Even the historically inaccurate dioramas in the museum have started mouthing off.

A screwball comedy about the perils of monogamy, certainty, and academic administration."--Page [4] of cover
