Not since A Separate Peace has the world of prep school and tortured adolescence been portrayed with the sensitivity and authenticity that distinguish this novel by a former headmaster of the prestigious Lawrence-ville School, near Princeton. All loves Excelling is a story of the fierce competition for admission to select colleges, of the equally fierce ambition of parents and school authorities—and how they combine to wreak havoc on one teenager and her family.
As timeless as it is timely, and should stand on the same sheltf with...John Knowles' A Seperate Peace Louis Auchincloss' the Rector of Justin and J.D. Salinger's Catcher in the Rye. * The Washington Times *
A novelist of real gifts....He has written a satire of the very first order. * The Wall Street Journal *
Sensitivity...insightful portraits...excels at depicting the impact of adult weaknesses on children. * The Review of Higher Education *
