Summary
Martin Weinstock, a poetry professor at Harvard University, must come to terms with his upbringing as the adopted son of his biological aunt and uncle, who were German Jewish immigrants, and mourn his adopted mother's death
Amazon.com description: Product Description: Fiction. Jewish Studies. This Michael Blumenthal novel was chosen by Elie Wiesel, Thomas Kenneally, and Merrill Joan Gerber as winner of Hadassah Magazine's prestigious Ribelow Prize as Best Jewish Novel of the Year in 1994. In its all-too-short lifespan, it received rave reviews from Kirkus and Publisher's Weekly and glowing tributes from such writers as Lorrie Moore, Tim O'Brien, Jhumpa Lahiri, Robert Coles, and Leslie Epstein. Unfortunately, just three months after the novel's publication, its publisher, Zoland Books, was forced to close for economic reasons, and this brilliant novel by one of America's finest poets hardly even saw the light of day. It is now available for the first time in paperback allowing it a second--really a first--life. Once you read it, I am sure you will agree that it more than deserves the kind of critical and popular attention which--due to the unfortunate circumstances that befell its original publisher--it never received.
