'Why can't life be as simple as a Chippendale chair? For Rappaport, antique dealer, magazine fanatic, cake eater extraordinaire, it is anything but. A girl he hardly knows decides to marry him, his best friend Friedlander is giving up his prince of a job in advertising to paint some obscure Greek island, there's not a single Marx Brothers movie showing in the whole of Melbourne ... will Rappaport live through the day? If it wasn't so funny, it'd be desperate, but funny it is, though peeping round the edges of this one wild day in Rappaport's life is a penetrating picture of young people today.'
