Description

When an unsettling discovery disrupts an ordinary day at a public high school, the faculty members are forced to confront the secrets, rivalries, and compromises hidden behind their professional roles. As conversations in the faculty lounge grow increasingly candid, the novel explores the pressures placed on educators, the complicated bonds among colleagues, and the gap between institutional ideals and lived reality. Sharp, darkly humorous, and perceptive, this ensemble story offers an incisive look at school culture, workplace politics, and the difficult choices people make when their carefully managed worlds begin to unravel.
