The year is 1990 and the place is a slightly altered Cleveland, Ohio, which sits on the edge of a suburban wasteland-the Great Ohio Desert. Lenore works as a switchboard attendant at a publishing firm, and in addition to her mind-numbing job, she has a few other problems. Her great-grandmother, a one-time student of Wittgenstein, has disappeared with twenty-five other inmates of the Shaker Heights Nursing Home. Her beau (and boss), editor-in-chief Rick Vigorous, is insanely jealous. And her cockatiel, Vlad the Impaler, has suddenly started spouting a mixture of psychobabble, Auden, and the King James Bible, which may propel him to stardom on a Christian fundamentalist television program" -- from publisher's web site. 650 0 $a Popular culture $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Young women $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Missing persons $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Grandmothers $v Fiction. 651 0 $a Cleveland (Ohio) $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Audio books. 700 1 $a Petkoff, Robert. 941 $a 2 945 $a cdab 952 $l YEPF572 $d 20200204062533.0 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20200110044502.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=3C6EB21229C211E499A8AD93DAD10320Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
