Seventeen outrageously humorous short stories that illustrate the darker side of mankind. In Boyle's world failure comes with the territory, although the protagonists frequently don't understand the reason for it. A primate-center researcher becomes romantically involved with a chimpanzee, and Norse poet overcomes bard-block. These and other strange occurrences come together in this collection of satirical stores that brilliantly express just what the "evolution" of mankind has wrought.
