After the events chronicled in The Kingdom of Absurdities, Chase leaves the U of SA and the USA, running away to Europe in a romantic quest for fame and fortune as an expat writer. Living in Paris trying to finish a novel, he's stalked by his ex-girlfriend, falls in love with a married woman, loses everything and winds up teaching at the world's worst school in an Alpine wasteland in Switzerland before escaping to Venice, Italy. A hilarious satire of expats, writers, academics, critics, and artistic pretensions, A Chronicle of Wasted Time recalls a time before 9/11, digital nomads, hook-up apps, cloud storage, social media, identity politics, and #MeToo |
