Overview

Seventy-five years ago Mary McCarthy provoked a scandal with her electrifying debut novel, The Company She Keeps (1942), announcing the arrival of a major new voice in American literature. This volume collects this and all her subsequent work The Oasis (1949), The Groves of Academe (1952), A Charmed Life (1955), her most famous novel, The Group (1963), Birds of America (1971), and Cannibals and Missionaries (1979), as well as all eight short stories. As a special feature, this collection also contains McCarthy's 1979 essay 'The Novels that Got Away,' on her unfinished fiction.
