When Alfred Fatigay returns to his native London, he brings along his trustworthy pet chimpanzee Emily who, unbeknownst to Fatigay, has become civilized: literate, literary--and in love with Fatigay himself. After Emily meets Alfred?s fiancée Amy Flint, a 1920?s ?modern woman,? she sets out to save her beloved from Amy?s cold grip.

A novel about a strange, wondrous, and often hilarious love triangle.
