Goodbye Columbus by Philip Roth

This was actually a collection of short stories along with the novella Goodbye Columbus. I enjoyed GC, mostly as a time-and-place story, with the typical 1960's women who don't talk, but cry. (e.g., '"I can't make it on time," she cried.' It's very Marjorie Morningstar and thus close to my heart.) The story itself is a dull love story but it's all in how Roth tells it. The other short stories were similarly charming, with "Coversion of the Jews" sticking out in my head.
