The Tight White Collar Grace Metalious 1961 RARE 1st Edition Hardcover Peyton Place
Written by the author of Peyton Place, Grace Metalious writes in the same narrative power and penetrating insight into character and motive. Newly arrived in Cooper Station, a small, New England town, Chris Pappas and his wife, Lisa, struggle to join the insular society that views them as outsiders. While Chris sets out to establish himself as a teacher, Lisa enters into a clandestine relationship with Anthony Cooper, a descendent of the town founder. The author shows the people of Cooper Station not as they would like to be seen, not as they admit to themselves that they appear, but as they really are.
