"Spanning more than 40 years, this collection attests to Auchincloss's durable talents: flawless prose, keen social observation, and a refined moral sensibility. ... Auchincloss schools us in all the social differences we're taught don't exist.... Further proof, if any is needed, that Auchincloss ranks among the best in American literature."
