by
Yates, Richard
shaw
, October 18, 2006
Revolutionary Road tells the story of Frank and April Wheeler fighting to keep the hounds of boredom at bay and failing in their own miserable and compelling ways. Ricard Yates takes the lid off marriage in the suburbs and reveals the rot under the surface.
