<DIV><b>The National Book Award?winning novel by the writer whom Fran Lebowitz called ?the real F. Scott Fitzgerald”</b><br><br> Joe Chapin led a storybook life. A successful small-town lawyer with a beautiful wife, two over-achieving children, and aspirations to be president, he seemed to have it all. But as his daughter looks back on his life, a different man emerges: one in conflict with his ambitious and shrewish wife, terrified that the misdeeds of his children will dash his political dreams, and in love with a model half his age. With black wit and penetrating insight, <i>Ten North Frederick</i> stands with Richard Yates’ <i>Revolutionary Road</i>, Evan S. Connell’s <i>Mr. Bridge</i> and <i>Mrs. Bridge</i>, the stories of John Cheever, and <i>Mad Men</i> as a brilliant portrait of the personal and political hypocrisy of mid-century America.</div>
