As a suburbanite, I definitely related to the "Is this all there is?" general theme and emotion through the book. Speaks to the boredom and monotony of life at home with 3 kiddies of my life. And the ease of how the boredom and routine of life can seep into marriage and next thing you know, there's hardly a conversation exchanged with your spouse. Written in 1961, you can tell with the long descriptions that the writing is old, not as succinct as we are used to now. The book moves quickly because of a lot of dialogue, but the theme of the whole book is definitely a DOWNER. Except for cocktail hour every night after work, the book feels like it is set in current suburbia. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To anyone who might be thinking, “I don’t want to read another book about bored, unhappy suburbanites” should not stop from reading this novel. Yes, there is no doubt that novels today are filled with sappy characters complaining about how bored and miserable they are in suburbia. So I can readily admit the subject matter is tired and has been beaten to death, but that is only because those sorts of books are generally written more on a Lifetime Movie For Women level than Eugene O’Neill or Richard Yates level. By Jessica Schneider: themoderatevoice.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------ LIZ'S FAVORITE QUOTE IN THE BOOK: "You still felt that life was passing you by?" "Sort of. I still had this idea that there was a whole world of marvelous golden people somewhere, as far ahead of me as the seniors at Rye when I was in sixth grade; people who knew everything instinctively, who made their lives work out the way they wanted without even trying, who never had to make the best of a bad job because it never occurred to them to do anything less than perfectly the first time. Sort of heroic super-people, all of them beautiful and witty and calm and kind, and I always imagined that when I did find them I'd suddenly know that I belonged among them, that I was one of them, that I'd been meant to be one of them all along, and everything in the meantime had been a mistake; and they'd know it too. I'd be like the ugly duckling among the swans." April Wheeling, pg.353
