A lively comedy in which Voltaire, the mercurial Enlightenment playwright cum philosopher, haunts the farmhouse outside Geneva of a newly-arrived Swiss-American family. Part of the comedy lies in the contrast between the narrator's American voice and outlook and Voltaire's more elegant approach to life.
