Getting It Straight J. M. Waters

Personable young professor 'Marty' Martin has nearly everything he wants in life: an adoring student lover, devoted friends, and a promising academic future if only ill health would force his puritanical superior to resign. In his words, he desires 'social recognition, beautiful women, agreeable work, good food and music, with enough fine Scotch to warm the cockles of my heart.'Then a gorgeous but dangerous student and Professor Jessica Harding, a militant feminist scholar, arrive on campus. Scandal, attempted rape, murderous drug thugs, and student rebellion soon follow. Life in affluent conservative Hartfort University changes radically, and no one is exempt ¿ not campus 'superstuds,' college deans, or the pillars of society. To defend his interests as well as those of his friends, Marty ventures into new territory infiltrating high and low social circles, all part of his bawdy romp in 'getting it straight.'
