Set
in New York during the 1980s, A Fool Among Fools follows the trials and
tribulations of the long-suffering Michael Gregoretti, an aspiring playwright who
slaves away his days at an cut-throat ad agency writing commercials for therapeutic
hand creams and aerosol butter. Although he tries to produce good, honest work
for the agency’s clients, he often finds his ideas punted to the side or
ridiculed. Worst of all, he just can’t seem to escape the influence of Gwen,
his insane former supervisor who is determined to subject him to her will. Peopled
with sympathetic characters, humor, and realism, readers will become completely
(and uncomfortably) immersed in Michael’s claustrophobic work environment. Recommended
for comedy lovers, and anyone who feels under-appreciated at work.
