Exiles, Paperback by Arlen, Michael J., ISBN 0374532605, ISBN-13 9780374532604, Brand New, Free shipping in the US Back in print, "a wry and moving . . . rare and minute accounting of growing up." (Time ) Exiles is the story of two glamorous people— one, a beautiful aristocrat; the other, a self-made man, one of the most famous authors of the 1920s. In this slender volume, which was nominated for the 1970 National Book Award and helped reestablish the memoir as a genre, Michael J. Arlen evokes— with humor and honesty— his parents' seemingly charmed life in Hollywood and New York, his own childhood spent between homes and boarding schools, and the decline of a family full of love, joy, and pride in one another: in other words, a family as ordinary as it is unusual.
