Publisher's Summary
What the critics say
"It's deceptively simple: two bright young couples meet during the Depression and form an instant and lifelong friendship. "How do you make a book that anyone will read out of lives as quiet as these?" Larry Morgan, a successful novelist and the narrator of the story, poses that question many years after he and his wife, Sally, have befriended the vibrant, wealthy, and often troubled Sid and Charity Lang. "Where is the high life, the conspicuous waste, the violence, the kinky sex, the death wish?" It's not here. What is here is just as fascinating, just as compelling, as touching, and as tragic." (Amazon.com review)

Great writing, pointless plot
I really enjoyed the author's writing. I enjoyed getting to spend time with the main characters. I struggle to see the point, the conflict, or what was redeeming about the story and/or the suffering therein. If it was aiming just to be like real life, I guess it succeeded, but it didn't really have any comment or insight on life, the point of it, or how to do it.
