About Schmidt

ebook
As he tries to make his life habitable again—after the devastating loss of his wife—retired lawyer Albert Schmidt finds the possibility of regeneration in a new love the old "Schmidtie" would never have dreamt of. Set in the Hamptons and Mahnattan, and laced with black humor, About Schmidt casts a cold, pitiless eye on the eastern seaboard upper class, the last vestiges of once-ascendant WASPs, and the newcomers whose fortunes are rising.
BONUS: This edition includes an excerpt from Louis Begley's Memories of a Marriage.
