Description:
Momik is the only child of two Holocaust survivors. He grows up in the shadow of their history, determined to understand the nature of the Nazi "beast" he hears fleetingly about and to prepare himself for the new disaster he knows is coming by shielding himself from all feeling and attachment. Yet something in Momik pushes him into strange, perilous confrontations with the world of pain and love he is determined to avoid. And through the stories that his great-uncle -- famous in his youth as the children's writer Scheherazade -- tells Momik about the "Children of the Heart" (as he told them to the commandant of a Nazi concentration camp during the war), Momik becomes "infected with humanity" and with the intense loving-kindness that exists alongside the horrors of our history. Luminously imaginative and profoundly affecting, "See Under: Love" is a prodigally original novel, the work of a world-class writer.
