About This Book

A comic campus tale follows a circle of college friends who mount a jocular contest to locate a young woman one of them has glimpsed; their rivalry prompts antiquarian research, letters exchanged with townspeople, and a sequence of episodes blending scholarly pastimes, practical jokes, and burgeoning romantic interest. Framed around a collaborative serial and the social routines of college life, the narrative trades on affectionate satire, evolving friendships, and the small-scale detective work that propels the action.
