Universally acclaimed when first published in 1955, The Man in the
Gray Flannel Suit captured the mood of a generation. Its title ,
like Catch-22 and Fahrenheit 451 , has become a part of America's
cultural vocabulary. Tom Rath doesn't want anything extraordinary
out of life: just a decent home, enough money to support his
family, and a career that won't crush his spirit. After returning
from World War II, he takes a PR job at a television network. It is
inane, dehumanizing work. But when a series of personal crises
force him to reexamine his priorities , and take responsibility for
his past , he is finally moved to carve out an identity for
himself. This is Sloan Wilson's searing indictment of a society
that had just begun to lose touch with its citizens. The Man in the
Gray Flannel Suit is a classic of American literature and the basis
of the award-winning film starring Gregory Peck. "A consequential
novel." , Saturday Review
