Description
This novel is a companion to the critically acclaimed Perfect Agreement and follows Mark Sternum, a veteran teacher struggling to balance his personal life with his demanding job. As he navigates his complicated relationship with the Professor, a tenured faculty member, Mark finds solace in the classroom, where he can escape the pressures of the outside world.
Through engaging writing exercises, harsh criticism, and contrarian advice, Still in Love explores the transformative power of the academic environment. This story is an urgent reminder that classrooms provide a unique space for learning to love our lives.
With its humorous, sometimes harrowing tone, this novel offers a fresh perspective on the complexities of relationships and the importance of finding refuge in unexpected places.
