Zusammenfassung: | This book provides a multifaceted introduction to Nobel Prize-winner Saul Bellow's most widely read and taught work of fiction, Seize the Day. This tragicomic story of one day in the life of an average man on the brink of failure and despair is a prime example of the Jewish novel of the 1950s. The essays in this volume examine the thematic, stylistic, and critical elements of Bellow's masterpiece and offer different approaches to how the novel may or may not be thought of as "ethnic." |
