At once a deft parody of the American fame factory and a piercing portrait of young and old desire, this novel introduces two unforgettable characters: Grady Tripp, a former publishing prodigy now lost in a fog of pot and passion and stalled in the midst of his endless second book, and Gradys student, James Leer, a budding writer obsessed with Hollywood self-destruction and struggling with his own searching heart. All those who love Michael Chabons The Yiddish Policemens Union and his Pulitzer Prize-winning The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier and Clay will find the same elegant imagination, bold humor, and undeniable warmth at work in Wonder Boys.[A] wise, wildly funny story . . . Chabon is a flat-out wonderful writer- evocative and inventive, pointed and poignant.-Chicago TribuneWhether making us laugh or making us feel the breathtaking impermanence of things, Michael Chabon keeps us wide awake and reading.-All Things ConsideredBeguiling and wickedly smart . . . There is first-rate satirical farce in Chabons novel but essentially it is something rarer: satirical comedy.-Los Angeles Times Book Review\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52191542837536,"sku":"NEW0812979214","price":14.6,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/81zt74iYUzL.jpg?v=1786833622","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/wonder-boys-a-novel-0812979214","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
