The 1980s are coming to an end, and aspiring writer Dave talks his way into an MBA program thinking he can use the school's exchange program to get himself over to Paris, a place he has dreamed of being for years. Comically ill-suited to MBA school life, and gaining a repertoire of bad habits as he goes along, Dave ends up in a struggle for his soul as the creative and practical sides of himself battle it out in the literary streets of Paris. This novelette by Robert David Duncan is a warm trip back in time that will appeal to anyone who ever lost their way on the journey toward becoming their true self.
