NATIONAL BESTSELLER âĒ The New York Times best-selling author of Maine brings us a sparkling tale of friendship and a fascinating portrait of the first generation of women who have all the opportunities in the world, but no clear idea about what to choose.
"Inviting ... Strong, warmly believable three-dimensional characters who have fun, have fights and fall into intense love affairs." âThe New York Times
Assigned to the same dorm their first year at Smith College, Celia, Bree, Sally, and April couldnât have less in common. Celia, a lapsed Catholic, arrives with a bottle of vodka in her suitcase; beautiful Bree pines for the fiancÃĐ she left behind in Savannah; Sally, preppy and obsessively neat, is reeling from the loss of her mother; and April, a radical, redheaded feminist wearing a âRiot: Donât Dietâ T-shirt, wants a room transfer immediately. Written with radiant style and a wicked sense of humor, Commencement follows these unlikely friends through college and the years beyond, brilliantly capturing the complicated landscape facing young women today.
