4.0 out of 5 stars
Agreed...fresh material,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Anniversary and Other Stories (Hardcover)
Mr Auchincloss has been very repetitive with themes and plots with his last few novels and short stories. This book provides some fresh stories, a few with some surprising twists. If you like Auchincloss but were getting bored, this is worth a try
4.0 out of 5 stars
Back on Track!,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Anniversary and Other Stories (Hardcover)
Mr. Auchincloss' elegant prose enchants once again. Gone is a recent tendency to repeat themes; these stories seem fresher and better thought out than his last collection, The Atonement. A must for the discriminating reader.

I'd Recommend This As A Starting Place For Those Wanting To Get Into Louis Auchincloss,
By Notnadia (Currently upstairs.) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Anniversary and Other Stories (Hardcover)
The Anniversary is one of Mr. Auchincloss' best collections, with the title entry being in my estimation the greatest story he has written in the last twenty years. I've read my share of works by this author, and frankly enjoyable as they are while they are being read, they too often blend in together and are forgotten once the book is concluded, but happily The Anniversary contains a number of short stories that linger in my memory. This is the anthology I'd suggest as a good starting place for an exploration of this fine teller of tales.
