Cassandra at the Wedding - (New York Review Books Classics) by Dorothy Baker (Paperback)

Cassandra at the Wedding is a masterpiece of modern American literature, as captivating and fresh today as when it was first published in 1962.

This novel follows the unpredictable course of events as its heroine, Cassandra, struggles to come to terms with her complicated feelings about her twin sister, father, and dead mother.

With an ear for dialogue as acute as her prose is immaculate, Baker creates a narrative that is both utterly impossible and tremendously sympathetic.

This book belongs with Salinger's Catcher in the Rye and McCullers's Member of the Wedding as a modern American classic.
