«Buen trabajo!» is the novel by David Lodge, published by FisicalBook in paperback (373 pages, in Spanish).
Robyn Penrose, a university professor specializing in literary theory, and Vic Wilcox, director of an industrial company in crisis, are forced to get to know each other in depth through a program that seeks to bring the university and industry closer together. The clash between both worlds and their opposing ideologies generates comic situations that address feminism, critical theory, and the tensions between academic life and the business world.
«Buen trabajo» is the third part of David Lodge's The Campus Trilogy. The work was nominated for the Booker Prize and won the Sunday Express Book of the Year in 1988.
Recommended for readers of contemporary fiction and British humor with social criticism, especially fans of novels set in the university environment.
David John Lodge was an English novelist and critic. He was a literature professor at the University of Birmingham until 1987, and some of his novels satirise academic life, notably the "Campus Trilogy" – Changing Places: A Tale of Two Campuses (1975), Small World: An Academic Romance (1984) and Nice Work (1988). The latter two were shortlisted for the Booker Prize. Another theme is Roman Catholicism, beginning from his first published novel The Picturegoers (1960).
