As these hawkish suburbanites fortify theirhouses with deadly moats and land mines, a formerthird-grade teacher named Pete Robinson steps forward with a tenuous bid to replace the mayor. But can anyone satisfy the terrible will of the people? By turns funny and phantasmagorical, fiercely intelligent and imaginative, Donald Antrim?s story of suburban civics turned macabre is a new American classic.
