Reviews
"A powerful treatment of a characteristically American theme, which might be labeled 'trapped.' ... A highly impressive performance. It is written with perception, force and awareness of complexity and ambiguity, and it tells a moving and absorbing story." -- The Atlantic Monthly " The Great Gatsby of my time ... one of the best books by a member of my generation." -- Kurt Vonnegut, acclaimed author of Slaughterhouse-Five "Beautifully crafted ... a remarkable and deeply troubling book." -- Michiko Kakutani, The New York Times "Every phrase reflects to the highest degree integrity and stylistic mastery. To read Revolutionary Road is to have forced upon us a fresh sense of our critical modern shortcomings: failures of work, education, community, family, marriage . . . and plain nerve." --The New Republic "Richard Yates is a writer of commanding gifts. His prose is urbane yet sensitive, with passion and irony held deftly in balance. And he provides unexpected pleasures in a flood of freshly minted phrases and in the thrust of sudden insight, precise notation of feeling, and mordant unsentimental perceptions." -- Saturday Review, " The Great Gatsby of my time...one of the best books by a member of my generation." -Kurt Vonnegut "Beautifully crafted...a remarkable and deeply troubling book." -Michiko Kakutani, The New York Times, "The Great Gatsbyof my time...one of the best books by a member of my generation." --Kurt Vonnegut "Beautifully crafted...a remarkable and deeply troubling book." --Michiko Kakutani,The New York Times, "A powerful treatment of a characteristically American theme, which might be labeled 'trapped.' ...

Synopsis
Hailed as a masterpiece of realistic fiction and as the most evocative portrayal of the opulent desolation of the American suburbs since it's publication in 1961, Revolutionary Road is the story of Frank and April Wheeler, a bright, beautiful, and talented couple who have lived on the assumption that greatness is only just around the corner. With heartbreaking compassion and remorseless clarity, Richard Yates shows how Frank and April mortgage their spiritual birthright, betraying not only each other, but their best selves. In his introduction to this edition, novelist Richard Ford pays homage to the lasting influence and enduring power of Revolutionary Road., NATIONAL BOOK AWARD FINALIST - Frank and April Wheeler are a bright, beautiful, talented couple in the 1950s whose perfect suburban life is about to crumble in this "moving and absorbing story" ( The Atlantic Monthly ) from one of the most acclaimed writers of the twentieth century. " The Great Gatsby of my time...one of the best books by a member of my generation." --Kurt Vonnegut, acclaimed author of Slaughterhouse-Five Perhaps Frank and April Wheeler married too young and started a family too early. Maybe Frank's job is dull. And April never saw herself as a housewife. Yet they have always lived on the assumption that greatness is only just around the corner. But now that certainty is about to unravel.
