"A funny, intelligent, superbly paced social comedy." --The New York Times Vic Wilcox, a self-made man and managing director of an engineering firm. has little regard for academics, and even less for feminists. So when Robyn Penrose, a trendy leftist teacher, is assigned to "shadow" Vic under a goverment program created to foster mutual understanding between town and gown, the hilarious collusion of lifestyles and ideologies that ensues seems unlikely to foster anything besides mutual antipathy. But in the course of a bumpy year, both parties make some surprising discoveries about each other's worlds--and about themselves.

I have just started the book; what I can appreciate though from the very beginning is the rhythm of the narration, subtle work with the dialogue and the undertone of irony which the author employs. (Knížku jsem teprve začala číst; co však oceňuji hned od počátku, je tempo vyprávění, důmyslná stavba dialogu a ironický podtón, který autor používá.)
