MEET ME IN ST LOUIS

Episodes of family life, familiar to readers of the New Yorker, by the author of Junior Miss. The period is the early part of the century and the stories provide an ingratiating distillation of home life of the period, a cabinet photograph of the clothes, furnishings, speech, ideas, family solidarity, of the time and the place. For young people who are really interested in what life was like during their parents' childhood -- this is a genial answer.
