The Lost Prince: A Search for Pat Conroy

â€œIn The Lost Prince Michael Mewshaw sets down one of the most gripping stories of friendship Iâ€™ve ever read.â€ â€•Daniel Menaker, author of My Mistake: A Memoir

Pat Conroy was Americaâ€™s poet laureate of family dysfunction. A larger-than-life character and the author of such classics as The Prince of Tides and The Great Santini, Conroy was remembered by everybody for his energy, his exuberance, and his self-lacerating humor.

Michael Mewshawâ€™s The Lost Prince is an intimate memoir of his friendship with Pat Conroy, one that involves their families and those days in Rome when they were both youngâ€•when Conroy went from being a popular regional writer to an international bestseller. Family snapshots beautifully illustrate that time. Shortly before his forty-ninth birthday, Conroy telephoned Mewshaw to ask a terrible favor. With great reluctance, Mewshaw did as he was askedâ€•and never saw Pat Conroy again.

Although they never managed to reconcile their differences completely, Conroy later urged Mewshaw to write about â€œme and you and what happened . . . i know it would cause much pain to both of us. but here is what that story has that none of your others have.â€ The Lost Prince is Mewshawâ€™s fulfillment of a promise.
