Novel from Polish-born (now part of Ukraine) Jewish-Amercia novelist Louis Begley (1933 -) known for his semi-autobiographical Holocaust novel, Wartime Lies (1991). This 243 paged urbane & elegant novel is the story of Ben, also a Holocaust survivor, who immigrates to the US. A Harvard graduate, socially skilled & keen of mind, Ben becomes a Wall Street international investment banker. Bent on turning his back on the painful past, Ben both distances himself from his parents & Jewish heritage. An urbane, elegant novel of life demands among the leisured rich, highbrow authors, filmmakers & artists populating the universe of international commerce from New York, France, Japan to Brazil, which our middle-aged protagonist now finds himself, hopefully not too late.
