Bennington Girls Are Easy

Like some of the well-to-do gals in Mary
McCarthy's The Group, the heroines of
this delightful satire move to New York expecting the city to enfold them like
the arms of so many Amherst boys. But as they swiftly learn, reality is as
unforgiving of youth as it is of missed rent, and eventually it's time to grow
up.
