This ambitious and richly compelling Superior Women is in the grand tradition of The Group and Wendy Wasserstein's Uncommon Women and Others, a tradition continued by J. Courtney Sullivan's Commencement.

Taking us into their lives at college, and beyond, through four tumultuous and crowded decades, Alice Adams has given us a novel rich in all tee pleasures of characterization and incident and social observation that we have come to expect from her.
