The Unpossessed by Tess Slesinger
A sharp, witty novel that follows a circle of left-leaning New York intellectuals and artists as their lofty political ideals collide with private desires, domestic entanglements, and petty rivalries; through lively dialogue and incisive observation it exposes the hypocrisies, compromises, and ultimately human vulnerabilities of a bohemian community trying to reconcile theory with everyday life in the 1930s.
The 13361st greatest book of all time
