GRUPPEN handler om otte unge kvinders liv i 1930’ernes USA. Efter studietiden på Vassar College mødes "gruppen" i New York i anledning af en af kvindernes bryllup, og syv år senere samles den igen til samme kvindes begravelse. Kvinderne er fulde af gåpåmod, de vil leve et uafhængigt liv og realisere sig selv på deres egne præmisser. GRUPPEN, som udkom første gang på dansk i 1964, inspirerede Candace Bushnell til at skrive "Sex and the City". Bogen er en moderne klassiker. Den er skrevet med det gennemskuende blik og det skarpe vid, som kendetegner Mary McCarthys værker, og som gav hende tilnavnet ‘damen med barberbladet’.

THE COMPANY SHE KEEPS follows a young bohemian intellectual, Margaret Sargent, through her experiences and lost loves in a time of coming war.Experimental in style, each section of the book describes separate episodes in the main character's life from different viewpoints. The novel begins with the young woman en route to New York, and goes on to paint a satirical portrait of the intellectuals of the time, then depicts the failure of a marriage and ends from the couch as she explores her identity through psychoanalysis.
THE GROUP follows eight graduates from exclusive Vassar College as they find love and heartbreak, forge careers, gossip and party in 1930s Manhattan.THE GROUP can be seen as the original SEX AND THE CITY. It is the first novel to frankly portray women's real lives, exploring subjects such as sex, contraception, motherhood and marriage.
