Negative Positive
Title: Probably best left forgotten
Review: Jewish bildungsroman has little to recommend it besides its ethnic angle. Unremarkable prose (that has the feel of Dickens, two generations later). Some interesting homoerotic undertones, and the narrator's lack of of self-consciousness may give critics something to consider. But I am not certain that there is any authorial control behind these hiccups. Too long. Probably best left forgotten.
