An academic publishing house in Manhattan is given a gift of money from a principle stockholder to find out if there is such a thing as “progress in philosophy”. The senior editor in charge of this project, Dan Snyder, hires three philosophers to peer review scripts purporting to show such progress. They are Ralston, a philosophical novelist living out the parody of an existential life in Europe; Radigan, an harassed, guilt-ridden company man trying to keep his challenged family together in Newington, Connecticut; and Robinson, a handsome extrovert connected by marriage to a family of ruthless land developers in California... Their imprint is called “Three R’s Press” and their adventures are sometimes heartbreaking, sometimes hilarious, but ever absurd.
