Generation doomed.
Debelasting offspring of old American families.
They have either money or hopes to get it – but there is not the slightest idea of what to do with their wealth. They have both talent and intelligence – but there is not enough perseverance and hard work to break into art. They dream of loving and being loved – but lethargy of feelings turns relations into unnecessary, indifferent novels of strangers, in fact, to each other.
They have neither the goal nor the meaning of life. Irony, all corroding irony – as an end in itself – remains their only consolation.
