His mouth had been used as a latrine by some small creauture of the night and then as a mausoleum. During the night, too, he’d somehow been on a cross country run and then been beaten up expertly by secret police. He felt bad.
Jim Dixon has as lousy job at a second rate university. His life is full of things he could happily do without – a tedious and ridiculous professor; a neurotic semi-detached girlfriend; burnt sheets; medieval recorder music and over-enthusiastic students. The solution seems to be fairly straightforward – pull faces behind people’s backs, copy others’ work and make sure the pretty girls choose his course. But without luck, life is never simple...This is a book for anyone who has come to hate a job they have to keep and who never ever has quite enough money for beer and cigarettes. A book about embarrassment, daydreams and lust and the importance of being lucky, Jim.
