Miracle boy

Grady Tripp, played by Michael Douglas, is a fifty-year-old English professor at a university in Pittsburgh. Seven years ago, he wrote a prize-winning novel, which earned him the nickname "Wonder Boy." However, since then, he hasn't published anything. In fact, he has been working on a new novel for several years. Finishing this novel isn't particularly difficult for Grady; he's just afraid that the new book will be too different from his previous masterpiece and raise questions about his status as a literary icon.
