At a leading university in Tokyo a dark comedy unfolds. The trustees are intent on globalisation and the next Dean of Humanities must be a foreigner. The obvious choice, the university's foremost scholar, an esteemed historian of the Scottish Enlightenment and an Oxford man, dies unexpectedly. Time is short and traditon decrees that the appointment must be from within. A bitter struggle ensues as the candidates lock horns, backed by their Japanese mentors. The front runners are Merlin Bird, the erudite haiku specialist from Cambridge and Virginia Macauley, considered the authority on the culture of the geisha. But others in the faculty have thrown their hats in the ring. Betsy Zimmerman, the American feminist disability historian, Nat Entwhistle, the Australian innovator in computational linguistics, and Eddie Cutler the iconoclast Cultural Studies lecturer from the North of England also have aspirations. A young academic from Edinburgh, new to Japan, discovers the tensions and absurdities of his new workplace, witnessing treachery, slander, sabotage and blackmail as events spin out of control.
