Rent The Human Comedy

Synopsis

Mr. Saroyan's first novel, long-awaited but never really expected, is almost exactly what one would have expected if one had really expected a novel out of Saroyan. Though it is a fairly short novel, it succeeds, like his stories and plays, in being discursive. It is profoundly romantic, deeply sentimental, indiscriminately passionate, full of the curiosity of childhood and the naivete which sometimes disturbingly approaches wisdom and sometimes only appears to.
