TITLE
T.C. Boyle
Willkommen
in Wellville
(The Road to Wellville)


SUMMARY
Süddeutsche Zeitung Collection of 20 Favorite Humorous Novels:
The Road to Wellville is a 1993 novel. Set in Battle Creek, Michigan during the early days of breakfast cereals, the story includes a historical fictionalization of John Harvey Kellogg, the inventor of corn flakes.

The title comes from an actual booklet called The Road to Wellville written by C.W. Post, a former patient at the sanitarium who was inspired by his diet there to found his own cereal business. Post used to give out his booklet in boxes of Grape-Nuts cereal. In the novel, Lightbody brings up this phrase and incurs Kellogg's wrath.

The Road to Wellville was adapted into a movie in 1994, directed by Alan Parker and starring Anthony Hopkins, Bridget Fonda, Matthew Broderick, and John Cusack.

This is number 9 out of 20 books edited by Süddeutsche Zeitung Bibliothek.

My cover art shows a woman and her doctor sitting in a paper boat together. Stylewise, I used a thin ink pen and some gray to add depth to the image.

20 Lieblingsbücher ausgewählt von der Feuilletonredaktion der Süddeutschen Zeitung

Humor hat viele Facetten. Die Süddeutsche Zeitung Bibliothek des Humors zeigt den ganzen Reigen literarischen Humors – skurril, satirisch, makaber, hintergründig, böse, ironisch, oder einfach lustig.

Dr. John Harvey Kellogg ist Chef des luxuriösen Sanatoriums all American Zauberberg, einem Wallfahrtsort für die gesundheitsbewusste Oberschicht der USA. Unter seinen Patienten befindet sich auch Will Lightbody, der vom Doktor auf eine qualvolle Diät gesetzt wird. Sein einziger Trost ist die kurvenreiche Schwester Irene, doch Dr. Kellogg hält nur wenig von Wills sexuellen Avancen. Der satirische Roman des Erfolgsautors T.C. Boyle wurde 1994 mit Anthony Hopkins in der Hauptrolle verfilmt.
