	John P. Marquand - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		John Phillips Marquand (November 10, 1893 - July 16, 1960, Wilmington, Delaware) was an outstanding twentieth century American novelist.
		Like his contemporary John O'Hara, Marquand addressed issue of privilege and inequality that make Americans generally uncomfortable and left-leaning academic literary critics (most of whom are themselves insecure socially) scornful and dismissive.
		Marquand was unsparing in his own scorn for academics, notably in "Point of No Return" (in which he lampoons anthropologist Warner) and "Wickford Point (in which he mocks a prominent member of Harvard's English Department).

	JOHN P. MARQUAND: AUTHOR
		John Phillips Marquand, leading American writer of the twentieth century, was born on November 10, 1893, to Philip and Margaret Fuller Marquand, both descendants of old New England families.
		This was a woman who read the classics each morning as she arose early, who taught young John Marquand how to build a fire, how to stitch up one's own wounds with sewing thread, and who lived only by candle light and kerosene lamps, lighting both with a flint and steel (as she distrusted matches).
		Marquand visited the base as a member of the Joint Civilian Orientation Conference, which toured military installations under the sponsorship of the Department of Defense.

	Commentary Magazine - Justice to John P. Marquand (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		...Marquand's father was a civil engineer turned stockbroker, and Philip Marquand's business led the family from Newburyport to Wilmington, Delaware, where John was born in 1893, and eventually to Rye, Connecticut, where the Marquands lived for several years in the comforting lap of upper-middleclass luxury...
		...Marquand's early potboilers are hardly worth saving, while most of his later novels, despite their glossy finish and good intentions, are precisely what Diana Trilling said they were in her 1946 review of Marquand's B.F.'s Daughter: well-made literary commodities for the busy housewife...
		...John Phillips Marquand's mother was the niece and namesake of Margaret Fuller, to whom her son would later refer with unconcealed tartness as "that extraordinary Dorothy Thompson of the Transcendentalists...

	washingtonpost.com: John Marquand, Zinging WASPs With a Smooth Sting
		They found Marquand's satires of that world both hilarious and accurate, and so do I. That Marquand has almost vanished from the literary landscape is to me an unfathomable mystery.
		Marquand published three more in the 1950s ("Melville Goodwin, USA," "Sincerely, Willis Wayde" and "Women and Thomas Harrow") but by then his deft touch had turned a bit ham-handed, and a bitter tone had crept into his work.
		This is because Marquand understood that "playing the game," as Bo-jo has done all his life and as Pulham is always inclined to do, is every bit as likely to complicate and diminish one's life as to enrich it.

		Marquand feels obliged to spell out much that a more modern writer would suggest, imply, leave his reader to infer, or simply omit.
		John P. Marquand (1893-1960) enjoyed that rare thing, both popular and critical success, for the last two decades of his life.
		Whether Marquand realized at the time the picture he was creating was one of glossing over the real problems of the era, poverty, racism, education, world militarism and so forth, the emptiness that envelopes and defines Charlie Gray is still present today in the "success" benchmarks the media portray.

		John P. Marquand probably was one of the most successful authors of his day and this book, for which he won a Pulitzer prize was the start of his brilliant career.
		Unfortunately, with Marquand's death in 1960, he fell from favor with the academy who was itself enamoured with tales of life in a university and stories addressing issues of gender and sex.
		Marquand's stories about middle aged WASPs in Boston coping with trying to come to grips with their lives were no longer in fashion and sadly have not returned to the center place that they previously occupied.
