A modernist -masterpiece- (The New York Times) that will appeal to fans of Downton Abbey and The Great Gatsby
Party Going, written after a long hiatus in Green's career as a writer, is a dark valediction to the -low dishonest decade- of the 1930s composed, however, with Green's unfailing ear for human conversation and loving eye for ornamental detail.
