Simple Grifts

Professor Soren Pafko has made a life and career out of lying, conniving, manipulating, and abusing everyone in his path. So far, it''s working great: he''s Chair of his College''s Department of Comparative Literature; he''s leader of the local chapter of the Democratic Communists of America; and when he wants to cheat on his wife, he''s got his pick of women who think he''s the second coming of Che Guevara. In short, his life is peachy. But when he flunks local yokel Gus Dropo''s teenage son for a politically incorrect classroom comment, everything in Professor Pafko''s world begins to go hilariously wrong.From early reviews:"Max Cossack is the funniest political writer in decades."

"Witty, great fun, fast-paced...best of all, lots of laughs""Great Grifter Story""Hilarious"
