As his debts mount at the same rate as his job applications are rejected, the rest of his life falls aparthis friends drop him, his son sneers at him, and when he is forced to put the house on the market his wife leaves him for his best friend. Spiralling into despair and possibly destitution he discovers the hideous reality of how failures are treated in the caring '90s, but he also discovers a stalwart and highly unlikely allyMonica, his mad mother-in-law.
