description: A short novel of major scope and impact, Goodbye, Columbus captures the exuberance and bewilderment of young Americans who find that beyond love-making they must still grope for love. It is the story of Brenda Patimkin, who has all a man could want (and maybe a little more), and of a young man on his way up, who finds among the Patimkins a world so determinedly opulent it's funny--and so funny it hurts.Dust cover, Black cover is in good condition.
