SynopsisIn these two tales of academic scandal, tiny Illyria College, beset with multiple troubles--including the publication of an obscene poem--struggles to stay open. And in the other tale tiny Belton College is engulfed by the enigmatic death of Professor Theodore Elves, left bloody and naked in his office. Who might have murdered him? These two short novels are paired in a single volume, GODAWFUL DREAMS, because each of them is a riveting page turner about the public nightmares every college dreads: administrative incompetence, sexual transgression, faculty deceit, and homicidal hatred. GODAWFUL DREAMS proves that academic politics are indeed the most uncivilized of all because the pretensions are so high, In these two tales of academic scandal, tiny Illyria College, beset with multiple troubles--including the publication of an obscene poem--struggles to stay open.
