| Description: |
This text offers an alternative to more conventional forms of literary criticism, by telling stories about imagined people reading Bernard Malamud's novels - in particular, "The Assistant", "A New Life", "The Fixer", "Dubin's Lives", and "The Natural". |
| Synopsis: |
The author sees Malamud as an undervalued writer not yet safely established within an impersonal canon; a writer whose commitment to the richness of realism, whose secularized Judaism, and whose sheer power of language constitute a challenging involvement in the uncertainties of uncategorizable experience; and a man whose unfashionable concern for human personality, serious emotions, and ordinary efforts at better lives offer a testing-ground for the claims of literary humanism. This book will be of benefit to students, teachers and general readers specifically interested in Bernard Malamud, and to all those concerned with the current theory and practice of literary study. |
