"Romance comes alive in Springfield – a bit too literally! Marge's characters from her novel have stepped off the page and into the hustle and bustle of a modern era where cars have replaced horses, 90% of gossip is now digital, and tuberculosis is... on the rise actually! But when Marge's thinly veiled protagonist, Temperance Barrows, falls for Artie Ziff, Marge must pen some new chapters lest her leading lady lives unhappily ever after."
