Descriere Fiedler on the Roof

Literary and cultural critic Fiedler here assembles 12 of his most penetrating essays written over the past decade on subjects that range from discussions of contemporary Jewish-American authors such as Malamud, Roth and Mailer, to Bloom as Jew in Ulysses, to in-depth considerations of Grail literature and Book of Job, to highly personal meditations on anti-Semitism, the Holocaust, and Jewish and American cultural history.
