"I thought that Chris Fahy's novel Fever 42 was both wildly funny
and surprisingly sad. The combination made me think of the early
J.D. Salinger period. ... I think it will attract a lot of
attention. Chris is a wonderful writer." - Stephen King. Ted
Wharton, 42, a teacher at Whitman High in Somerside, New Jersey,
lives a routine suburban life with his wife and kids. Disenchanted
after fifteen years of teaching, going thru the motions at work
-and home-he feels the clock is ticking. Then it happens: on the
same day that one of Ted's colleagues drops dead of a heart attack,
Joy, 17, a bright and stunningly beautiful senior in one of his
classes, makes a play for him. And he puts up no resistance. Fully
alive for the first time in years, he revels in his wild trysts
with Joy -many at Whitman High. Living on the edge, obsessed with
Joy, but realizing the ultimate disaster this will become, tries to
end his relationship with her. Only to see his world spiral out of
control.
