Edwin Mullhouse — Steven Millhauser

A parody of a literary biography starring a 10-year-old novelist who is mysteriously dead at 11 -- from the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of Martin Dressler.

As a memorial, Edwin Mullhouse's best friend, Jeffrey Cartwright, decides that the life of this great American writer must be told. He follows Edwin's development from his preverbal first noises through his love for comic books to the fulfillment of his literary genius in the remarkable novel, Cartoons.
