Middle-aged professor, Dr. Brian S. Mossworth, dreams of life at Oxford, chumming with the Inklings, preferably during the Thirties. The lack of golden spires at his Arkansas college leave him longing so he wears expensive tweeds and thrives on hot tea in ice tea country. His students hate him, his colleagues ignore him, but the delightfully bovine Dr. Charolais is interested. When Mossworth's vapid attempts at art historical insight lead to a downward spiral of student rebellion and acts of mild violence, a letter arrives offering him a second-chance.
