- Synopsis
- The novel about an aimless young man in 1960s America that inspired the classic film: &“Moves with the speed and drive of a runaway locomotive.&” —Chicago Sunday Review When Benjamin Braddock graduates from a small eastern college and comes home to his parents&’ house, everyone wants to know what he&’s going to do with his life. Benjamin has no idea. Feeling empty, embittered, and adrift, he stumbles into an affair with Mrs. Robinson, the wife of his father&’s business partner. But then he falls in love with a woman closer to his own age: Mrs. Robinson&’s daughter. A scathingly entertaining tale of idealism and materialism, corruption and conformity, The Graduate is both a darkly comic love-triangle tale and a sharp look at postwar suburbia. &“He contrives some ludicrously funny situations and he keeps his story racing.&” —The New York Times Book Review &“His novel makes you want to laugh and it makes you want to cry.&” —The Plain Dealer
