Description:
Praise for J: "Asnarling, effervescent and ambitious philosophical work of fiction that poses unsettling questions about our sense of history, and our self-satisfied orthodoxies. Jacobson's triumph is to craft a novel that is poignant as well as troubling from the debris. 'We are the poorer by what we took away,' a character notes elegiacally. Thanks to J , we are, if only for a brief time at least, richer too." - Independent (UK) Praise for Howard Jacobson: "A real giant, a great, great writer." -Jonathan Safran Foer, author of Everything is Illuminated "Mr. Jacobson doesn't just summon [Philip] Roth; he summons Roth at Roth's best." -Janet Maslin, New York Times "Jacobson's capacity to explore the minutiae of the human condition while attending to the metaphysics of human existence is without contemporary peer." -Daily Beast "How is it possible to read Howard Jacobson and not lose oneself in admiration for the music of his language, the power of his characterisation and the penetration of his insight?" -Matthew Syed, The Times (London)
