Leaving his wife, Iris, in Minnesota, Larry Wyler heads to New York to pursue the celebrated writer’s life. He soon stumbles into meteoric success as a writer and womanizer, but he just as quickly falls when The New Yorker gives him the boot and Iris catches him living the New York high life. A chastened man, Wyler returns to Minnesota, where the only writing job he can get is as an advice columnist for the lovelorn. Writing under the pen name of “Mr. Blue,” Wyler doles out wry and knowing advice about seduction and mating to the heart-broken and the lonely. And only slowly, painfully, does Wyler figure out for himself how, after losing love, you can eventually get it back. Hilarious and heartfelt, Love Me is about ambition, success, and failure as well as the virtues of real love and a steady writing job.
