A philosophy of ruin : a novel / Nicholas Mancusi.
A seemingly innocuous one-night stand with a woman named Dawn becomes volatile when, on the first day of classes, Oscar Boatwright, a disenchanted philosophy professor, realizes she is his student, and later learns that she is a fledgling campus drug lord. To make matters worse, his family is in debt, having lost their modest savings to a self-help guru who had indoctrinated Oscar's mother by preying on her depression. Desperate to help his family, Oscar breaks with his academic personality - he agrees to help Dawn with a drug run.
