Wigfield: The Can Do Town That Just May Not is a satirical novel by comedians Amy Sedaris, Paul Dinello, and Stephen Colbert, three of the four creators of the Comedy Central show Strangers with Candy. It was first published on May 7, 2003, by Hyperion Books.
The story concerns journalist Russel Hokes, who is trying to complete his assignment, write 50,000 words about a dying small town in America. In his desperate search he stumbles upon Wigfield, a quarter-mile stretch of concrete and gravel, dotted with strip clubs and used auto parts shops. In there he finds a number of colorful characters, and a town in crisis, as mayor Bill Farber wants to tear down the Bulkwaller Dam, thereby flooding the town.
