He is 6'6" tall, a clean-shaven version of Abe Lincoln. He is a professor of linguistics, bewitched by language, deluded about his ability to win the hearts of women with his erudition and physical appearance. He is Thomas H. Chippering, aka Tomcat. And in his private dictionary of love, three entries stand out:
Tampa: Just the word makes Thomas Chippering's blood curdle. That's where his ex-wife, the faithless Lorna Sue, now lives with a suntanned tycoon whose name Chippering refuses to utter.
Revenge: If Chippering can't get Lorna Sue back, at least he can wreak havoc with her new marriage. He also has plans for Lorna Sue's brother, Herbie, with whom she has always had an unnaturally close relationship.
Love: His ex-wife may have disapproved, but is Chippering's fondness for women- especially the nubile young ladies who attend his classes - really so wrong?
