Apunta't a LibraryThing per saber si aquest llibre et pot agradar. No hi ha cap discussió a Converses sobre aquesta obra. Another one I remember reading some years ago, without now recalling its details. ( ) This is certainly a very Jewish book, there's almost two separate stories within, one being the political satire story, and the other being a middle aged man's struggle with his own family and relationships as he essentially undergoes a mid life crisis in both career and marriage. There's some coarse language and quite a few racial epithets employed in the narrative and I found that after a while the satirical aspect became rather tiresome and rote. Whilst it held my interest for the most part I didn't feel particularly enthralled by the narrative. The numerous unexplained Yiddish terms littered throughout the novel didn't endear me to the writing. At least the ending wrapped up the story lines nicely, you were finally able to feel something for a character that prior to the end did not have many (or dare I say any) redeeming features. Overall, it's okay. Sense ressenyes | afegeix-hi una ressenya
