I find myself being a \u003ci\u003eMrs. Bridge\u003c\/i\u003e evangelist, telling them that it's a perfect novel, and then pressing copies on them. . . What writing  Economical, piquant, beautiful, true.\" --Meg Wolitzer, \u003ci\u003eThe New York Times\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e In \u003ci\u003eMrs. Bridge\u003c\/i\u003e, Evan S. Connell, a consummate storyteller, artfully crafts a portrait using the finest of details in everyday events and confrontations. The novel is comprised of vignettes, images, fragments of conversations, events--all building powerfully toward the completed group portrait of a family, closely knit on the surface but deeply divided by loneliness, boredom, misunderstandings, isolation, sexual longing, and terminal isolation. In this special fiftieth anniversary edition, we are reminded once again why \u003ci\u003eMrs. Bridge\u003c\/i\u003e has been hailed by readers and critics alike as one of the greatest novels in American literature.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Counterpoint LLC\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/05\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781582435688\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 244\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.55lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.90h x 5.40w x 0.70d","brand":"Evan S.
