Sam joined the State Department to escape from his parents' life as Long Island country squires--hunting, fishing and putting up Christmas trees. Although he soon becomes disaffected with his job, he is compensated by the life of a diplomat: a few years here, a few years there, never staying in one place long enough to grow restless or attached to the surface of things. His three sons--Scobie, Matthew, and Quentin...
