Riassunto

Appearances are deceiving in seemingly tranquil Kaaterskill Falls, an upstate New York community where a cast of mainly Jewish characters live side by side--some year-round dwellers, others summer folk--all with an idea of what is best for the small community. Reprint.

"An astonishing display of virtuosity."—Los Angeles Times on Total Immersion

"Exceptionally well written: funny, wise, keenly observed....One of the most maddening and recognizable families to come along in years...an enchanting book."—Michiko Kakutani in The New York Times on The Family Markowitz
