A reissue of Calvin Trillin's memoir of his relationship with a brilliant but tragic Yale classmate that is also a rumination on social change in the 1950s and 1960s
Remembering Denny is perhaps Calvin Trillin's most inspired and powerful book: a memoir of a friendship, a work of investigative reporting, and an exploration of a country and a time that captures something essential about how America has changed since Trillin--and Denny Hansen--were graduated from Yale in 1957. Roger Denny Hansen had seemed then a college hero for the ages: a charmer with a dazzling smile, the subject of a feature in Life magazine, a member of Phi Beta Kappa, a varsity swimmer, a Rhodes scholar...perhaps a future president, as his friends only half-joked. But after early jobs in government and journalism, Hansen's life increasingly took a downward turn and he gradually lost touch with family and old friends before eventually committing suicide--an obscure, embittered, pain-racked professor--in 1991. In contemplating his friend's life, Calvin Trillin considers questions both large and small--what part does the pressure of high expectations place on even the most gifted, how difficult might it have been to be a closeted homosexual in the unyielding world of the 1960s Foreign Service, how much responsibility does the individual bear for all that happens in his life--in a book that is also a meditation on our country's evolving sense of itself.Binding Type: Paperback

Quality issues
The first one the squeaker did not work, the second one the seam on the wing had a fault so it didnβt not last more than an hour or two before it was taken away.

Tall Tails Fan
My Boston Terrier loves tall Tails toys. However, they do not seem to be lasting as long. However, I continue to purchase because she has to have their chipmunk to go to sleep nightly.

The best dog toys on the market
My dog is relentless when it comes to toys. Unfortunately that means most get destroyed. These toys are incredibly durable you can feel it when you touch them. However if your dog is a shredder I would stick to rubber
