Fülszöveg
"Perfect A lyric marvel." —The Nation
Bernard Malamud's second novel, originally published in 1957, is the story of Morris Bober, a grocer in postwar Brooklyn, who "wants better" for himself and his family. First two robbers appear and hold him up; then things improve when broken-nosed Frank Alpine becomes his assistant. But there are complications: Frank, whose reaction to Jews is ambivalent, falls in love with Helen Bober; at the same time, he begins to steal from the store.
Like Malamud's best short stories, this novel unerringly evokes an immigrant world of cramped circumstances and great expectations. In it Malamud defined the immigrant experience in a way that has proven vital for several generations of readers.
"His best novel The Assistant is as tightly written as a prose poem."
—Morris Dickstein, Leopards in the Temple: The Transformation of American Fiction, 1945-1970
"Rightness . . . permeates this book . . . Malamud's people are memorable and real as rock."... Tovább

"Rightness . . . permeates this book . . . Malamud's people are memorable and real as rock." —William Goyen, The New York Times
"There is a binding theme throughout the book, a search for fundamental truths through the study of ordinary people, their everyday ups and downs, their mundane pleasures and pains . Malamud's vision, style and world are distinctively original." —San Francisco Chronicle Vissza
