Item Description
Hello and Thanks for Stopping By!
This is a novel by the author of Joe College and Election
Little Children by Tom Perrotta is a great book that still has the dust cover and looks new.
This book is a novel of sheer pleasure. Has 355 pages.
LITTLE CHILDREN is satire, Perrotta's take on the gnawing dissatisfactions of family life, the tyrannical control small kids exert over their parents..., and the inescapable sense that there is something better out there. But, as you'd expect from a writer who's shown the generosity Perrotta has, it's compassionate satire. LITTLE CHILDREN is a withering take on suburbia but--and this is what differentiates it from all the other withering takes on suburbia--its view is from the inside....Perrotta gives a sympathetic portrait of being trapped in the good life. He even manages to extend his sympathy to the most despised character in the book, a convicted flasher....[I]t marks a leap for Perrotta, a suggestion that there may be bigger books inside him. It is also that rarity, a book that understands the mature wisdom of compromise without denying any of the accompanying melancholy."
