About This Novel
David Lodge was born in London in 1935. He studied at the University of London in his early years, received a PhD from the University of Birmingham, and is a member of the Royal Academy of Arts. He was awarded the Order of the British Empire and the French Chevalier des Arts for his literary contributions. Since 1960, he has taught in the English Department of the University of Birmingham. He retired in 1987 to engage in creative writing. He is also an honorary professor of modern British literature at the University of Birmingham. This book is the first of the Rocky Campus Trilogy. In the novel, teachers from universities in two different countries are focused on portraying them. They participated in an inter-school exchange project and thus experienced each other's life on the other side of the Atlantic: politics, lifestyle, students, colleagues, and in the end even exchanged wives, which ended badly.
