By: Mary McCarthy   | Series: Library of America Mary McCarthy Edition 
This first volume of the definitive edition of her fiction includes four novels and eight classic stories by the witty and provocative writer who defined a generation

In 1942, Mary McCarthy provoked a scandal with her electrifying debut novel, The Company She Keeps, announcing the arrival of a major new voice in American literature. A candid, thinly-veiled portrait of the late-1930s New York intellectual scene, its penetrating gaze and creative fusion of life and literature—“mutual plagiarism,” she called it—became the hallmark of McCarthy's fiction, which the Library of America now presents in full for the first time in deluxe collector's edition. The Oasis (1949), a wicked satire about a failed utopian community, and The Groves of Academe (1952), a pioneering campus novel depicting the insular and often absurd world of academia, burnished her reputation as an acerbic truth-teller, but it was with A Charmed Life (1955), a searing story of small-town infidelity, that McCarthy fully embraced the frank and avant-garde treatment of gender and sexuality that would inspire generations of readers and writers. Also included are all eight of McCarthy's short stories, four from her collection Cast a Cold Eye (1950), and four collected here for the first time.

Great enrichment activity for dogs!
Color: Blue Green Orange, Color: Blue Green Orange
This mat provides excellent enrichment time for scent hounds. Our mini dachshund puppy loves finding treats hidden in the mat. It is also a very affordable option. Our puppy likes to play and sleep on it even when there aren’t treats in it. If your dog is an aggressive or obsessive chewer, I would only leave out when treats or food are hidden inside and then pick up because it will get damaged.

Great puzzle mat!
Color: Blue Green Orange, Color: Blue Green Orange
My boys love these snuffle mats. Since I bought them, they are always excited when I pull them from the cabinet. It keeps them busy for a while, and they don't eat their kibbles too quickly. It's simple to clean; I just put it in the washer and hang it to dry. Suitable for small dogs, such as my babies.

DON’T WASTE YOUR MONEY-it is CRAP!!!
Color: Blue Green Orange
What a Piece of Garbage! If I could I’d have given this ZERO STARS!!! My Dogs WON’T GET NEAR IT! Obviously it smells wrong or they sense that it is TRASH!! If I were a canine, I wouldn’t give it my consideration Either! It looks large online but when you receive it, it is a Small RAG! THIS Attempt at a SNUFFLE MAT IS INSULTING!!! DON’T WASTE YOUR MONEY on this GARBAGE‼️During the time period I had to return it, I was in the Hospital after having a Heart Attack!!I am still trying to Recover & I CANNOT DO MUCH!! Otherwise I would have returned it!!! It’s sitting in a corner in my bedroom. I had to unwrap the CHEAP PLASTIC WRAP COVER so I could even tell WHATit was. As It was diagonally Rolled UP, I had to unwrap & look at it & show it to my Dogs-The DOGS WOULDN’t get near it & now I’m STUCK WITH THIS PIECE OF GARBAGE THAT I CANNOT GET MY MONEY BACK ON‼️Yes, I am upset ! This ugly Thing hasn’t even been TOUCHED by my 3 Dogs & now I’m STUCK WITH SOMETHING USELESS THAT MY DOGS WOULDN’t even get near & I CAN’T GET A REFUND FOR!!! THIS IS THE TYPE OF TRANSACTION THAT I FIND HIGHLY OFFENSIVE ABOUT AMAZON & the Fly By Night companies they represent!!!!!

Nice but…
Color: Blue Green Orange
Nice but not very sturdy and it comes rolled up so it’s difficult to get it to lay down for your dog.

Both my dogs LOVE find the treat game time!
Color: Orange Red Blue, Color: Orange Red Blue
Both my dogs have loved this for years. Both senior dogs - great fun activity for them and they really hunt for all the treats we hide! My little one usually wins and takes over the game board then uses it as a lounger after :-) It’s very interactive with different ways to hide treats and challenge the dogs. We’ve had it awhile and it has stood up to many uses and washes. Very easy to store and simply roll out when it’s game time. Highly recommend!
