July, July

A “perceptive, affectionate, and often very funny” novel about old college friends at a thirty-year reunion, by the author of The Things They Carried ( Boston Herald ).   From a National Book Award winner who’s been called “the best American writer of his generation” ( San Francisco Examiner ), July, July tells the story of ten old friends who attended Darton Hall College together back in 1969, and now reunite for a summer weekend of dancing, drinking, flirting, reminiscing—and regretting.
