Reading this book was like going through the first three decades of my life again. I had been meaning to read some of Saul Bellow's work for years - what with him being a Nobel laureate and all. Someone gave me this book years ago. I would pick it up and put it down without ever getting past the first 30 pages or so. I began to think this was a sign - that I did not like the book. However, in a brave move, I chose it for our book club. I have lost a few friends but gained great pleasure from reading this book all the way through. Now, the comment about my life and this book - what did it mean? Well, the first hundred or so pages were a real struggle; enough to shake my faith in myself and wonder if this was really worth it. All the references to Russian and Northern European philosophers and my complete lack of knowledge of any of these schools of thought were enough to make me feel stupid (the first one and half decades or so of my life). Towards the middle of the book, things started to change; the characters seemed just a bit more real, the train of thought started to make sense. I felt if I could stick with it, there would be a great future ahead. The last quarter of the book was near about unputdownable. The ruminations on the nature of love, life, relationships and family were at once real and engrossing. For most part, ruminations tend to be a lot more enjoyable for the cow doing the ruminating than for any observer. However, Saul Bellow's are worth reading. They are smart, erudite and witty. The end left me feeling about the book as I do about the last decade or so of my life - purposeful, content, cheery and as though I had learned something valuable. I would highly recommend this book to anyone looking for a good, long conversation with a very intelligent, wise old man.
