What is Me and Orson Welles : A Novel about?

<p><P><b>Coming in 2009, the major motion picture from the director of <i>Slacker</i></b><P>The irresistible story of a stagestruck boy coming of age in the golden era of Broadway-with some very famous supporting characters-<i>Me and Orson Welles</i> is a romantic farce that reads like a Who's Who of the classic American theater. Called "one of the best depictions of male adolescent yearning ever to hit the page" (<i>Kirkus Reviews</i>), it is sure to translate wonderfully to screen in 2009.</p><h3>The Washington Post</h3><p>Kaplow keeps all the proceedings clipping along, but what sets his book apart is its historical texture -- the chance to see real-life figures like Brooks Atkinson and Wolcott Gibbs and John Houseman and George Coulouris popping off the page. <i>Me and Orson Welles</i>, in short, is best enjoyed by people who get jazzed imagining conversations between Joseph Cotten and Norman Lloyd. If you have to ask who Joseph Cotten or Norman Lloyd was, you may be less beguiled, but you're still likely to recognize the behemoth who gives the book its title. &#151; <i>Louis Bayard</i></p>
