Synopsis
Jack Silva is tired, cranky and underpaid. Odessa Jefferson is a bitter, proud perfectionist. These two teachers at a disadvantaged community college in the middle of booming Silicon Valley fight their own quirky wars against ignorance, illiteracy, cultural deprivation, poverty and pinheaded beaurocrats. In this hilarious satire on the eternal battles between youth and age, men and women, art and technology, excellence and mediocrity, two unlikely heroes lead the reader on a journey of joy. Light, lively, odd, yet strangely healing, this novel celebrates the human spirit's capacity for innovation and growth in the most unlikely circumstances. Reading this book will awaken a hunger for beauty you might almost have forgotten.
