Million-selling Michael Gerber (of the Barry Trotter series) is back with another winner! Hart Fox thought he'd seen it all after barely surviving his first year at Stutts University, the world's most prestigious college. But the place just keeps getting weirder! Half-satire, half-fantasy, and half-memoir, this mathematically-shaky-yet-hilarious sequel to FRESHMAN exposes the Ivy League in all its ancient, obnoxious, incestuous glory. All the characters you loved are back: Hart, the Midwestern striver constantly running afoul of the Powers That Be; Peter, the genius inventor with impulse control problems; and Tabitha, the peppy, preppy vampiress not afraid to kick ass and take names (in very girly handwriting). An Ivy League education is more expensive than ever. And, though they won't tell you this in the brochure, there's a very small possibility you'll turn out like George W. Bush. Can you afford to take that chance--read SOPHOMORE instead!
Michael Gerber (b. 1969) has sold 1.2 million books in 20 different countries, most notably Barry Trotter and the Shameless Parody, which reached #2 on The London Times bestseller list and launched a renaissance in that type of comic prose. Prior to working in the novel form, Gerber sold humorous writing to every major American magazine and newspaper that publishes such drivel, including The New Yorker, The Atlantic, The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, and many others. He has also contributed to NPR and TV's "Saturday Night Live." In his spare time, he leads the 501(c)3 overseeing The Yale Record, America's oldest college humor magazine, and mentors many student writers all around the world.
An ardent fan of The Beatles, Gerber runs a team blog on the group located at http://www.heydullblog.blogspot.com. He lives in Santa Monica, CA, with his wife and two cats.
