Description
Around Harvard Square by Christopher John Farley is a coming-of-age novel set in the 1990s. The story follows Tosh Livingston and his friends as they navigate their way through Harvard University, with a focus on winning a coveted spot on the staff of the Harvard Harpoon, the university's humor magazine. Tosh soon finds himself entangled in a frenzied competition, facing off against a secret society of wealthy students and teaming up with a philosophy professor who challenges his views. Along the way, he must confront the complexities of race and class at an elite institution. Through the characters' dialogue and experiences, the novel explores the purpose of jokes and the consequences of laughter, raising important questions about comedy culture and its boundaries.
