Keep in mind ... this was written in the 60s!

by courtneyinatlanta on Aug 26, 2010

This is the best book I've read in a long time.

Depressing

by jaz123 on Jan 2, 2009

Didn't appreciate or understand the author's premise of soulless, boring, stifling life in the suburbs. Maybe it was unrealistic expectations or unpursued goals but these were two really unhappy people that made each other miserable. I know that life is what you make it; don't make choices contrary ...
