Description
A collection of magazine stories, arranged in a chronological cycle from youth through adolescence and first loves to marriage, also serves as a mirror of the author's fate. The heroines of the stories are dazzlingly beautiful, successful, wealthy – and utterly destructive to their partners. The heroes may be talented and ambitious, but they are often also half-poor. In school, in the army, in adult life, they struggle with the contradiction between the ideals of the 'American Dream' and reality. With the end of the decade came disillusionment and a fall into a world shaken by economic crisis and the foreboding of war.
