A Frolic of His Own Summary
William Gaddis

A Frolic of His Own Overview

Lawsuits abound as William Gaddis explores a society in which litigation is the “norm” in A Frolic of His Own. Oscar Crease, history teacher and plagiarized playwright, is fighting multiple lawsuits at one time and he isn't the only one. The voices of a not quite divorced girlfriend, a federal judge father under political and media attack, and lawyers galore round out this dialogue rich narrative.
