Wigfield: The Can-Do Town That Just May Not

by Amy Sedaris, Stephen Colbert, Paul Dinello Narrated by Amy Sedaris, Stephen Colbert, Paul Dinello

Overview

Wigfield is a small bucolic hideaway, situated in front of a massive dam which is about to be torn down by the state government to restore the salmon run. Wigfield's only hope lies in the self-righteous, self-involved "journalist" Russell Hokes, who arrives hoping to capture the quiet dignity of the disappearing American Small Town. However, Wigfield is nether quiet nor dignified. As the date of destruction draws nearer, Hokes casts about desperate to find something about Wigfield worth documenting. WIGFIELD is a razor-sharp satire by three major talents.

Editorial Reviews

Publishers Weekly

A bizarrely entertaining piece of social satire.

From the Publisher

The book seems to have been written as an audio book recording and then transcribed to a book, which is why the audio book is so superb. The authors really bring the characters to life, using different accents for each one. - Blogcritics
