The Name of the Game
Seller: Strand Book Store, ABAA, New York, NY, U.S.A.
Seller rating 4 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Graphic pioneer Will Eisner weaves a darkly humorous tale of three Jewish-American families joined in wedlock: the old-money Arnheim, the more humble, midwestern Obers, and the upstart Kayns. At its heart, the novel is a study in the disappointments of 'good marriage.' With characteristic irony and empathy, Eisner impeccably captures the subtle differences in class and culture between the families and the perils of a parent's best intentions. B&W illus. 168p.
