Set before the Idiots marriage, this delightful tale unfolds in Mrs. Smithers-Pedagogs High-class Home for Single Gentlemen, where our protagonist, deemed to have an alleged mind by the Schoolmaster, embarks on a whimsical quest to uplift the civilized world through his ingenious inventions. While missionaries and other do-gooders already attend to the needs of barbarian man, the Idiot is determined to improve the lives of those who consider themselves civilized.
