Miles Krzelewski is a devoted husband, a doting father beloved for his outlandish bedtime stories, and the proud owner of a truffle-hunting dog in a land with no truffles. He is also a bit lost, twelve years late with his PhD on Russian folktales, and increasingly haunted by a sense that he’s become a disappointment to his family. So when his wife Kate accepts a visiting professorship at a prestigious college in the far away forests of Vermont, he decides that this will be his year to finally move forward with his life. But Miles is a man of many enthusiasms, who possesses, in Kate’s words, ‘a great capacity to fall in with anyone, anywhere.’ And no sooner does he arrive than he finds himself entangled with a cast of characters as colourful as any of his folktales, from a ghostly tree surgeon to a scythe-mad biochemist, the world’s delusions in a ‘Inventory of Wrong Ideas’.

Watched over by the chain’s benevolent blue dinosaur logo, Meryem contends with co-workers who don’t mean to sound sexist, but aren’t women just harder work than men?, a boss who seems determined to make Meryem’s life as miserable as possible, and Omar – smart, funny, very-senior-but-nevertheless-seems-like-a-normal-person Omar, who also happens to be devastatingly handsome. We follow Meryem as she makes the transition from intern, to temp, to arrive finally at the promised land of fixed employment – only to find that she might have left part of her soul behind.
