A Fortunate Age - My Commencement Season Reading.

[Mark S.]

This is commencement season, and the IP would be remiss if he did not
post a piece related to college and university commencements.

Guest commentator Sanford Pinsker didn't make it to graduation this
year, but he did read Joanna Smith Rakoff's new novel A Fortunate
Age. This book about a group of late '90s Oberlin College graduates
is patterned after Mary McCarthy's The Group. Sanford's comments
about this commencement season and the novel are sure to catch your
attention.
