n this charming departure from Lake Wobegon, bestselling author
Garrison Keillor tells a hilarious and heartwarming tale of
ambition, success and failure, and the virtues of real love.
Aspiring writer Larry Wyler leads a quiet, decent life with his
do-gooder wife, Iris, in St. Paul, Minnesota, but he wants more.
When his literary debut becomes a hit, he departs for a Manhattan
apartment, a job at the "New Yorker," and three- martini lunches
with the great editor, William Shawn.
But when his second novel bombs and he finds himself in the grip
of writer's block, Wyler discovers that success?and the New York
publishing scene?is a fickle mistress, indeed. Creatively barren,
nearly destitute, and longing for Iris, he accepts a job writing
?Ask Mr. Blue, ? a column doling out advice to the lovelorn. It may
not be glamorous work, but through it Wyler discovers what's really
important and sets out to win back the woman he left behind.
