'I think it A Work of genius, I think it The Work of a Genius' John
Cheever For many years, the great poet Von Humboldt Fleisher and
Charlie Citrine, a young man inflamed with a love for literature,
were the best of friends. At the time of his death, however,
Humboldt is a failure, and Charlie's life has reached a low point:
his career is at a standstill, and he's enmeshed in an acrimonious
divorce, infatuated with a highly unsuitable young woman and
involved with a neurotic mafioso. And then Humboldt acts from
beyond the grave, bestowing upon Charlie an unexpected legacy that
may just help him turn his life around.
