Description
The Group by Mary McCarthy A novel that cuts to the heart of American society between two world wars, this book follows the lives of eight Vassar graduates as they navigate love, loss and identity in post-war New York City. With wit and candour, McCarthy explores the complexities of female friendship and the struggles of growing up. As the women embark on their adult lives, some find success and happiness, while others struggle to break free from the expectations of those around them. Through it all, they remain bound together by a shared history and a deep understanding of one another's strengths and weaknesses. When tragedy strikes, the group is forced to confront the fragility of life and the enduring power of female relationships. A thought-provoking and deeply human novel that continues to resonate with readers today.
