Thought to be lost for over 50 years, here is the first novel by one of the greatest American writers of the 20th century. Set in New York during the summer of 1945, this is the story of a young carefree socialite, Grady, who must make serious decisions about the romance she is dangerously pursuing and the effect it will have on everyone involved.

Lovely language, lovely style, but it misses the balance. I have the idea that it was not finished yet. I think it is dearing to claim that it was his first novel, as he did not publish it. ( )
Grady MNcNeil tiene diecisiete años y ha conseguido convencer a sus padres para que la dejen sola en el piso de Central Park mientras ellos hacen un crucero de verano. nadie se explica por qué la jovencita desdeña las delicias de Europa por el ardiente verano de Nueva York, Pero Grady tiene un secreto: está enamorada. Y el suyo es un amor que deberá saltar barreras muy poderosas. Porque Grady, que definitivamente ha nacido en lo más alto de la escala social, se ha enamorado de Clyde Manzer, un jovencito de veintitrés años que trabaja en el parking donde ella guarda su coche. Y Clyde es judío, veterano de guerra, y de clase media baja, muy baja.
This truly became a beach read when the San Francisco winter turned 70 degrees. That was pretty much the perfect way to read it -- in two hours, with sunglasses on and heels kicked up.

"You are a mystery, my dear," her mother said, and Grady, gazing across the table through a centerpiece of roses and fern, smiled indulgently: yes, I am a mystery, and it please her to think so.

Ogni volta che cambiamo marca di sigarette, traslochiamo in una nuova casa, ci abboniamo ad un altro giornale,ci innamoriamo e disinnamoriamo, non facciamo che protestare in modo più o meno frivolo contro l'insormontabile noia della vita quotidiana.

Turning right on Fifty-ninth, the car skidded onto the Queensboro Bridge; there, above the hollow hootings of river traffic, and with a morning he was never to see changing the sky, Gump cried, "Damn it, you'll kill us," but he could not loosen her hands from the steering wheel: she said, "I know."
