Note to self : DON'T see the movie!
A First Tuesday Book Club book
What a depressing read! And the word depressing should be in CAPS and bold!
I can see that it could have been seen as a masterpiece when it was published (1961) but it seemed dated now.
Frank and April feel they are too good for the blandness of suburbia. They were perfect intellectual snobs ... trouble is, they have very little intellect. They are boring malcontents.
Mournfully depressing life in the 50s
