July, July by Tim O'Brien

A “perceptive, affectionate, and often very funny” novel about old college friends at a thirty-year reunion, by the author of The Things They Carried ( Boston Herald ). From a National Book Award winner who’s been called “the best American writer of his generation” ( San Francisco Examiner ), July, July tells the story of ten old friends who attended Darton Hall College together back in 1969, and now reunite for a summer weekend of dancing, drinking, flirting, reminiscing—and regretting. The three decades since graduation have brought marriage and divorce, children and careers, hopes deferred and replaced. This witty, heart-rending novel about men and women who came into adulthood at a moment when American ideals and innocence began to fade, a New York Times Notable Book, is “deeply satisfying” ( O, the Oprah Magazine ) and “almost impossible to put down” ( Austin American-Statesman ). “A symphony of American life. ” —All Things Considered, NPR. This 2003 Penguin Books Paperback is in good condition.
