"Mr. Bridge" is the companion volume to "Mrs. Bridge" told through a very different voice. The Bridge novels have been recognized as classics during their author's lifetime. With their shared ability to capture the manners and mores of the American upper middle class, the novels have done for the late thirties what the works of Sinclair Lewis did for the twenties.

I read both of Connell's books, "Mrs. Bridge" and "Mr. Bridge" and enjoyed them. It was like' reading' snapshots in a family's album in prewar Kansas. The chapters are very short, but slowly tell the story of this one wealthy family from Mission Hills, KS. There is no big plot, nothing really awful happens, but you do get a sense of what life was like during that time of our country's history. I have recommended this to many people already.
