Pulpy and Midge Not Just Cubicle Comedy

By Jenny Sampirisi
The Southernmost Review

Imagine a cubical existence. Sketch in a Patrick Bateman-esque boss with an oversexed wife prowling your every move. Now add a sticky note with a cynical and lonely receptionist angling for a date. Ho ho! says Dan the boss man. The timid, clumsy Pulpy lives in this world with his ice-dancing, candle-selling wife, Midge. In the span of a few weeks their solid (and rather PG) marriage is challenged by the absurd, domineering demands of the new boss, Dan, and his wife Beatrice, who’s corrosive relationship and life-style destabilize Pulpy and Midge’s seemingly perfect one. Ho ho!
