Paul Trilby has experienced a series of disasters: he lost his prestigious teaching job, his wife left him when she found out he was having a liaison with a student, he has moved to Texas, and he's working as an eight-dollar-an-hour temp typist at something called the Texas Department of General Services. He has acquired a girlfriend, but otherwise Texas promises to be even more of a disaster than his life up north. What's with the ceiling noises in the men's room? And the secret society that wants to admit him? And what really caused the death of the guy in the next cube? In KINGS OF INFINITE SPACE, James Hynes sheds new light on the reasons why work can be hell. Copyright (C) Muze Inc. 2005. For personal use only. All rights reserved.
