DECEMBER 18, 1987, THE NINE-YEAR ANNIVERSARY OF TED GREENBERG'S OVERDUE COLLEGE PAPER
Ted drives a New York City cab with one screaming deadline in front of him: He must turn in the paper by midnight, or his long cherished degree-pending status at Harvard will be snatched away. Forever.
It will take a wild ride through N.Y.C. and his past, a cab fare with beleaguered Ivan Boesky, and ultimately confronting his financial titan of a father before he's able to come to grips with an eight-to-ten-pager on Edmund Spenser's 500-year-old unfinished epic poem, The Fairie Queene.
