 | Revolutionary Road by Richard Yates
A suburban family--Frank, April, and the two kids--breaks down when April decides they should change their lives by moving to Paris and Frank gets involved in a messy affair at the office. Richard Yates's brilliant 1961 novel, in which there are no winners, is a satirical dissection of suburbia in the 1950s and a probing examination of the sadness, emptiness, and self-deception at the heart of some American lives and relationships. REVOLUTIONARY ROAD was a finalist for the National Book Award. This edition contains an introduction by Richard Ford. AUTHOR: Richard Yates

What a refreshing new way to learn a language in record time -- without any reading or writing! Pop in a tape whenever there's a moment to spare. Listen to short, natural conversations among native speakers; then take part in prompted dialogues. Hear key vocabulary words and the sound effects to match -- telephone rings, hairdryer whirs, electric razor buzzes -- then practice with audio games. Guided by a friendly narrator, learn how the language works in real-life situations: meeting people, eating out, going shopping, getting around, and expressing feelings and opinions. -- Learn by listening; it's fast, easy and fun -- Ideal for busy, on-the-go people who can listen in the car, while jogging, or during a lunch break -- Especially helpful with Russian and Chinese -- learn to communicate orally without having to learn a new alphabet
