Description: | Select Guide Rating For many years, the great poet Von Humboldt Fleisher and Charlie Citrine were the best of friends. At the time of his death, however, Humboldt is a failure, and Charlie's life has reached a low point. And then Humboldt acts from beyond the grave, bestowing upon Charlie an unexpected legacy that may just help him turn his life around.
