Fast-rising New York playwright Adam Rapp directs his latest, a tense, magical realist and slightly autobiographical drama about a YA author (Billy Crudup) whose titular novel has been banned in a small town in the Midwest. At the behest of his agent (David Greenspan), who smells possible publicity, the slovenly (though, obviously, very handsome) writer visits the town, where his presence ignites the explosive situation rather than diffuse it. Over the course of his two-day visit a series of events from his novel take place in the town as Rapp ponders what the purpose of art ought to be.
