'Superb... These thirty-two stories inhabit the Technicolor
vernaculars of taxi drivers, barbers, paper pushers and society
matrons... O'Hara was American fiction's greatest eavesdropper,
recording the everyday speech and tone of all strata of mid-century
society' Wall Street Journal John O'Hara remains the great
chronicler of American society, and nowhere are his powers more
evident than in his portraits of New York's so-called Golden Age.
Unsparingly observed, brilliantly cutting and always on the tragic
edge of epiphany, the stories collected here are among O'Hara's
finest work, and show why he still stands as the most-published
short story writer in the history of the New Yorker.
