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 Grady’s student, James Leer, a budding writer obsessed with Hollywood self-destruction  and struggling with his own searching heart. All those who love Michael Chabon’s  \u003ci\u003eThe Yiddish Policemen’s Union\u003c\/i\u003e and his Pulitzer Prize-winning \u003ci\u003eThe Amazing Adventures  of Kavalier and Clay\u003c\/i\u003e will find the same elegant imagination, bold humor, and undeniable  warmth at work in \u003ci\u003eWonder Boys\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e “[A] wise, wildly funny story . . .
