具体描述

When Rona Jaffeas superb page-turner was first published in 1958, it changed contemporary fiction forever. Some readers were shocked, but millions more were electrified when they saw themselves reflected in its story of five young employees of a New York publishing company. Almost sixty years later, "The Best of Everything" remains touchinglyaand sometimes hilariouslyatrue to the personal and professional struggles women face in the city. Thereas Ivy League Caroline, who dreams of graduating from the typing pool to an editoras office; naAve country girl April, who within months of hitting town reinvents herself as the woman every man wants on his arm; and Gregg, the free-spirited actress with a secret yearning for domesticity. Jaffe follows their adventures with intelligence, sympathy, and prose as sharp as a paper cut.

用户评价

1950s的美国女性被囿于婚姻，书中所有的故事都围绕婚恋展开，每个女主人公都盼着结婚，似乎这是值得她们努力追寻的一个梦想。职业女性是不被鼓励的一种罕见存在。她们苦苦追寻及觅得的，似乎又很难称之为爱。故事太流畅了，如同在看电视剧。在琢磨着通俗文学的定义。五六年前，终生不婚的前景如同黑暗一样令我感到恐惧。现在，婚或不婚，已经不是问题了。不认为青年时期价值观会被塑造定型，明明一直都在流淌。
