Bob Comet is a retired librarian, isolated but not lonely, living out his quiet days in a mint-colored house in Oregon, surrounded by his books & small comforts. One morning, out on his daily walk, he performs an act of kindness that brings him into contact with a nearby senior center, where he soon begins volunteering. Here, as a community of peers & friends gathers around Bob, & following a happenstance brush with a painful complication from his past, the events of his life & the details of his character are revealed.
Behind Bob Comet's plain facade is the story of an unhappy child's runaway adventure, of true love found & stolen away, of the purpose & pride found in vocation, & the ultimate acceptance of a life lived to the side of the masses. Bob’s experiences are imbued with melancholy but also a bright, sustained comedy; he has a talent for locating bizarre & outsize players to welcome onto the stage of his life.
With his inimitable verve, skewed humor, & compassion for the outcast, The Librarianist is a wide-ranging & ambitious homage to the life lived through & for literature, a document of the introvert’s condition. With his inimitable verve, skewed humor, & compassion for the outcast, deWitt celebrates the extraordinary in the so-called ordinary life, & depicts beautifully the turbulence that sometimes exists beneath a surface of serenity.
