"Throughout the 1980s and 1990s, Saul Bellow confined himself to shorter fictions. Not that this old master ever dabbled in minimalism: novellas such as The Actual and The Bellarosa Connection are bursting at the seams with wit, plot, and the intellectual equivalent of high fiber. Still, Bellow's readers wondered if he would ever pull another full-sized novel from his hat. With Ravelstein, the author has done just that--and he proves tha ..."

" What makes all of this so remarkable is not merely Bellow’s eye and ear for vital detail. Nor is it his talent for exposing the innards of character in a paragraph, a sentence, a phrase. It is Bellow’s vision, his uncanny ability to seize the moment and to see beyond it.” Chicago Sun-Times Fading charmer Tommy Wilhelm has reached his day of reckoning and is scared. In his forties, he still retains a boyish impetuousness ..."

"All I can truly say is that when I read in one of my father's books, "The forgiveness
of sin is perpetual," it was just the same ... Maybe I didn't want to hear any more
than that about sin. ... Anyway, I am the inspirational, and not the systematic, type.
Besides, if I wasn't going to abide by that one sentence, what good would it do to
read the entire book? ... And owing to my attachment to Wilfred Grenfell I became
interested in ..."

burning their captives in ovens. But then I met a young man who had lost his
mother and a sister in that way. And to tell the truth, I found Germany a queer
place when I visited it in the Twenties. In Hamburg a nudist family got on the
streetcar: father, mother and little ones all as naked as my hand, a family of petit
bourgeois carrying bundles and ..."
