Résumé
On the Greek island of Skios, the Fred Toppler Foundation's annual lecture is to be given by the young and charming Dr Norman Wilfred, an authority on science. The Foundation's guests are soon eating out of his hand, Including Nikki,… the attractive and efficient organiser. Meanwhile, at the other end of the island, Nikki's old school-friend Georgie was supposed to be sharing a villa with a notorious chancer she has rashly agreed to go on holiday with, but is instead trapped with a balding old gent called Dr Norman Wilfred, who has lost his whereabouts, his luggage, his temper and increasingly all normal sense of reality - everything he possesses apart from the flyblown text of a well-travelled lecture on the scientific organisation of science. 2012.
