Erich Segal is at his best when he wrote The Class.
Its abt 5 Harvard under grad students and their lives in and after Harvard.
The characters are very well drafted and they r as real as it can get
The charcters are
Jason : a jew who is gifted at sports and looks seeks to find his identity
Charles : An under achiever who is short of confidence but eventually finds his stature
Daniel : gifted musician who learns the hardships of fame n fortune
Seth: Classics genius who rises to glory from a humble beginning
(cant remember his name): Polish refugee who claims big in life
Its a must read for every Segal fan , a novel with such a magnificent story line that you cant put it down without finishing it ( I read it in one night )
over all a beautiful book , and with this book my faith in Segal grew to unbounded heights
