The follies of Richard Wadsworth -- Night school -- The Disciple.
"The Follies of Richard Wadsworth showcases Nick Maandag's signature blend of deadpan satire and exceedingly unexpected plot twists. In "Night School," a Modern Managerial Business Administration and Operational Leadership class goes awry when a fire alarm brings the Chief to school and he decides to stick around to teach the students a thing or two about leadership--and discipline. "The Follies of Richard Wadsworth" follows the title character, a professor of philosophy, as he begins a contract instructor position at yet another university. When Wadsworth finds himself smoking reefer at his student's party and he discovers she works at a rub n' tug, an off-kilter plan is hatched. And in "The Disciple," a yarn about a co-ed Buddhist monastery, Brother Bananas, the resident gorilla, isn't the only one having difficulty keeping his lust tucked safely under his robe."-- Provided by publisher.
