"Wilson published 15 books, including the bestsellers The Man in the Gray Flannel Suit (1955) and A Summer Place (1958) , both of which were adapted into feature films. A later novel, A Sense of Values, in which protagonist Nathan Bond is a disenchanted cartoonist involved with adultery and alcoholism, was not well received. In Georgie Winthrop, a 45-year-old college vice president begins a relationship with the 17-year-old daughter of his childhood love. The novel The Ice Brothers is loosely based on Wilson's experiences in Greenland while serving with the United States Coast Guard. The memoir What Shall We Wear to This Party? Recalls his experiences in the Coast Guard during World War II and the changes to his life after the bestseller Gray Flannel was published. "(from Wikipedia) .
