My Father, More Or Less

Morris Dickstein wrote (in Harper's) of Jonathan Baumbach's previous novel that it "beautifully explores the relationship between what we image and who we are." My Father More or Less, which deals with the confrontation between an aggrieved 18 year old boy and his estranged novelist-turned-screenwriter father, is a continuing exploration of the fiction making capacities of the imagination.
