With unflinching honesty and cool, crisp prose, Alary
McCarthy (1912-1989) transformed the scope and
style of twentieth-century American literature.
Whether writing about sex and infidelity, McCarthy-
ism and Cold War paranoia, or Freudian psycho-
analysis and the psychology of terrorism, she brought
to her subjects a frankness and clarity of vision that
still feel ahead of their time. In the sensational best
seller The Group and in other novels and stories she
moved the experience of modern women front and
center, inspiring generations of readers and writers.
Now Library of America and editor Thomas Alai Ion
present the first collected edition of her fiction, seven
novels and eight classic stories complete in two
authoritative, annotated volumes.
When T7he Groups McCarthy’s fifth novel, was pub-
lished in 19x53, it spent five months atop the ISleix? Torh
Times Test Sellers list and remained on the list for
close to two years. Released almost simultaneously
with Retty Friedan’s The Feminine Afystiqtie and Adri-
enne Rich’s Snapshots of a Dctujqhter-in -Tftw^ it landed
squarely amid the turmoil of second-wave feminism,
electrifying readers and outraging critics with its
unabashed portrayal of female sexuality, its blistering
satire of social conventions, and its powerful demon-
stration that so-called women’s issues were the stuff of
serious literature. Interweaving the stories of eight
members ofVassar’s Class of 19*33 as they embark on
post-graduate life, McCarthy treats subjects like con-
traception, breastfeeding, infidelity, and the tension
between career and family in a matter of fact tone that
was, and in many ways still is, start!iugly provocative.
The Group remains a brilliant portrait of an age and a
timeless masterpiece of the storyteller’s art.
Fir els of Tim eric a (i9 7 i), a very different kind of
book, is a quixotic coming of age story set against
the backdrop of the war in Vietnam and the loss of
American innocence. In 19Ó4, Peter Levi, an ideal-
istic nineteen-year-old enamored with Kantian
philosophy, takes flight from his small ISTew England
village and vivacious mother and migrates to Laris
to study at the Sorbonne, determined to put his
scrupulous code of ethics into practice. Llis
encounters with, a series of Americans abroad force
him to confront the limits of philosophy as he finds
his own place in the world.
In CctTtnibctls dnct Ztåissi on dries (ipy^)), a book with
profound resonances for today, the taking of a
Æddie East—bound plane by hijackers becomes in
McCarthy’s hands a study in the psychology of
both the terrorists and the hostages, and an ironic
meditation on the power and value of art.
As a special feature this volume also presents
McCarthy’s 1979 essay “The Novels that Got
Away,” about her uncompleted fiction. A companion
Library of America volume collects her first four
novels, TThe Co nip ci Jiy She Keeps, ihe Odsis, IThe
Groves of A cfiiiejiie^ and A Chet rm ed Life^ and all
eight of her short stories.
