Two Jews on a Train : Stories from the Old Country and the New

Rating:
Summary: cliche tales written in whimsical style
Review: Predictable tales of the most exhausted type written in self important pompous language. What saves the reader from abyssmal boredom is the presence of little details and asides between the lines. The author is an observant thinker with a keen eye for a grotesque surreal details on human condition. For great Jewish stories please read Singer, Buber, Malamud and others.
