El grupo es una novela de Mary McCarthy que retrata a ocho estudiantes que, tras graduarse en Vassar en 1933, inician su vida adulta. La novela aborda temas como la independencia, el trabajo, el amor, la anticoncepción, el matrimonio, la maternidad y las opciones sexuales y políticas. A través de las historias de Kay, Dottie, Pokey, Helena, Libby, Priss, Lakey y Polly, McCarthy ofrece un retrato de una generación de mujeres que buscaban algo más que ser simples adornos personales y cuyo objetivo en la vida no era solo el matrimonio. Sin embargo, se enfrentan a una sociedad que aún no está preparada para los cambios sustanciales en la convivencia humana y a los convencionalismos y prejuicios de sus progenitores.

She was a member of the National Institute of Arts and Letters and the American Academy in Rome. In 1973, she delivered the Huizinga Lecture in Leiden, the Netherlands, under the title Can There Be a Gothic Literature? The same year she was elected a Fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences. She won the National Medal for Literature and the Edward MacDowell Medal in 1984.
