In Curt Leviant's wry, funny tales of love and desire set in various locales - the deep South, Boston, New York, Italy, Israel - the protagonists are men, women, guys and gals of various backgrounds and ages. Some are teenagers; others are students, writers, salesmen, teachers; there's even a great-grandfather in the mix. We meet Holocaust survivors, a pretty petty thief, a playwright, students on vacation, a Polish gentile woman in love with Jewish history, a non-Jewish Holocaust historian, a book salesman, a Yiddish artist, a synagogue architect, a secretary at Harvard, and other delectable characters.
What unites all these disparate people is the universal desire for love and affection - some claw, some snag, others just wait. And some even succeed.
Leviant's newest collection stands alongside his substantial oeuvre in the vein of Bellow, Singer, Kafka - a place they're likely to remain for a long, long time.
