About this book

The Group (first published 1963) '-' A vida de um grupo de jovens graduadas em 1933 pelo Vassar College — uma das mais caras e exclusivas universidades para moças nos Estados Unidos. Uma brusca ruptura de um modo de vida sofisticado, mas um tanto fútil, considerando as grandes expectativas, para uma realidade amarga, sem ilusões e repleta de frustrações... As várias experiências de iniciação sexual, o casamento, a maternidade, as relações ilícitas, as depressões e até a morte.====https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Group_(novel)'(...) Mary McCarthy's most celebrated novel follows the lives of eight Vassar graduates, known simply to their classmates as "the group." An eclectic mix of personalities and upbringings, they meet a week after graduation to watch Kay Strong get married. After the ceremony, the women begin their adult lives: traveling to Europe, tackling the worlds of nursing and publishing, and finding love and heartbreak in the streets of New York City. Through the years, some of the friends grow apart and some become entangled in each other's affairs, but all vow not to become like their mothers and fathers. It is only when one of them dies that they all come back together again to mourn the loss of a friend, a confidante, and most importantly, a member of the group".Aventura / Cinema / Crônicas / Drama / Entretenimento / Ficção / História / Jovem adulto / Literatura Estrangeira / Moda, Estilo e Beleza / Romance / Sexo e Sexologia / Suspense e Mistério
