Irwin Shaw has earned a reputation as one of the most popular American writers of the 20th century, a writer who perfectly combined gripping intrigue with sharp social commentary, and the works included in this collection vividly demonstrate this skill.

One day, while watching his son play baseball, the protagonist of the novel "Voices of a Summer Day," Benjamin Fedrow, is plunged into memories of his own youth, when he himself played baseball. A youth that cannot be called carefree, for it included not only first love and high hopes, but also the Great Depression, World War II, and other difficult trials.

And the characters of the novel "Bread Upon the Waters" will learn that good deeds don't always pay off handsomely. The peaceful and orderly life of the close-knit but poor Strand family is disrupted when the youngest daughter brings home a man who has been attacked by street hooligans.
