Description: ...a complex look at life in modern times, and in the end, it succeeds because Shaw's characters share universally experienced hurts and triumphs-the pride and the anguish of being parents, the satisfaction of a good job done well, the misery of loneliness and the thrill of accomplilshment, the urgings of unfulfilled ambition, and the queasy dissatisfaction of too easily fulfilled desires, in the end, we care about Shaw's people-rich, poor, or comfortably middle-class-because they are us.

Excellent for its age. Yellowing only a little.
