Exodus

A wickedly funny and satisfyingly highbrow black comedy about the collapse of Western academic institutions under the weight of neoliberal economics and crushing, widespread idiocy.

Lars and W., the two preposterous philosophical anti-heroes of Spurious and Dogmacalled "Uproarious" by the New York Times Book Reviewreturn and face a political, intellectual, and economic landscape in a state of total ruination.

With philosophy professors being moved to badminton departments and gin in short supplyalthough not short enoughthe two hapless intellectuals embark on a relentless mission.
