Review:
"Bittersweet, elegiac, A GOOD SCHOOL is Richard Yates's gentlest book, the one in which he shows the most overt love and pity for his people. The loneliness and yearning of Yates's adolescents and even his few adults comes through beautifully, and there's that same sense of innocence tested, that same compassion that kept THE EASTER PARADE from turning savage."
Stewart O'Nan, Boston Review, 10/01/1999
