Book Description
Westerners Andy Dutton and Danny Cole teach English at Luxury Gardens International School in China. Despite being unqualified as teachers, they earn relatively high salaries, and enjoy lives of privilege and indulgence, traveling Southeast Asia, drinking excessively and visiting brothels. Meanwhile, the school principal, Peter Li, is busy trying to build the school into one with an elite global reputation. His plan involves getting the school accredited by the International Diploma Organization. To meet accreditation requirements, he begins the process of replacing the likes of Andy and Danny with qualified professional teachers, like Glenn Whitman. Glenn, however, turns out to be troublesome. Praise for Foreign Teachers: "An original, intriguing premise that meanders. . . dissembling to a conclusion as satisfying as an 'All-American Ham and Cheese Sandwich' at a Michelin-starred restaurant with Chinese Characteristics." - Circus Reviews "The novel, like its cast of characters, is full of promise but ultimately delivers nothing of real substance. . . not even worth the paper it's printed on."- Democracy Maybe Later "This is why people don't read books anymore" - Fake New York Times "Ever wish you were on the Titanic? . . . Here's your chance. . . The story takes place on land yet somehow it feels like a sinking ship." - Vanity Ferris Wheel
