Nice work a novel

When Robyn Penrose, a trendy leftist teacher, is assigned to 'shadow' Vic Wilcox, a self-made man and managing director of an engineering firm, the hilarious collision of lifestyles and ideologies that ensues seems unlikely to foster anything besides mutual antipathy. But in the course of a bumpy year, both parties make some surprising discoveries about each other's worlds, and about themselves. Second book in a trilogy.

  • "Een jonge intellectuele vrouw loopt een trimester lang met de manager van een fabriek mee, met als doel wetenschap en industrie dichter bij elkaar te brengen."
  • "Roman centré sur la rencontre de deux univers et deux cultures à travers deux personnages: un directeur d'entreprise dans la cinquantaine et une jeune universitaire, sémiologue gauchisante. Une bonne satire sociale et culturelle de l'Angleterre tatchérienne, une oeuvre typiquement post-moderne et une parodie du roman victorien moralisateur et optimiste."
  • "A trendy feminist teacher is assigned to shadow the head of an engineering firm as part of a program to foster mutual understanding. Over the course of a year of colliding lifestyles and ideologies, both make some surprising discoveries about themselves and each other's worlds."
