Book Description
Yoram Kaniuk has been hailed as “one of the most innovative, brilliant novelists in the Western World” (The New York Times), and The Last Jew is his exhilarating masterwork. Like Gabriel Garcia Marquez’s One Hundred Years of Solitude, The Last Jew is a sweeping saga that captures the troubled history and culture of an entire people through the prism of one family. From the chilling opening scene of a soldier returning home in a fog of battle trauma, the novel moves backward through time and across continents until Kaniuk has succeeded in bringing to life the twentieth century’s most unsettling legacy: the anxieties of modern Europe, which begat the Holocaust, and in turn the birth of Israel and the swirling cauldron that is the Middle East. With the unforgettable character of Ebenezer Schneerson—the eponymous last Jew—at its center, Kaniuk weaves an ingenious tapestry of Jewish identity that is alternately tragic, absurd, enigmatic, and heartbreaking.
Book Description
In the closing days of the twentieth century an elderly writer wanders the streets of Vilnius, Lithuania, possessed by the need to photograph the young mothers of the city. In their faces and the faces of their children he sees the reflection of a secret that haunts him. A secret he has spent years trying to bury. In a decaying back street of the city a woman struggles to raise her family. As her son dreams of a better life, she is torn between Vilnius' twilight world of prostitution and her deter-mination to secure hope for her children. She too is haunted by memories that rob her of sleep. In Vilnius the rubble of the Jewish ghetto lies side by side with the fallen statues of communist heroes. Through this tangled debris of past and present the story of the writer's great love and his even greater betrayal finally demands to be told.

Vilnius by candlelight.......2004-10-18
I'll give this novel three stars for effort, but that's about it. Collishaw tries to piece together a story that spans three generations of Vilnius, hoping to make some sense of the Holocaust which took place in Lithuania. Only problem is that it took him some 170 pages to finally get around to the heart of his story, in which the narrator retells his time in Vilnius during the height of WWII.
I thought it was presumptuous, to say the least, for Collishaw, a young Brit, to take the point of view of a Lithuanian penshioner. The book drags lethargically for the first two parts as Collishaw tries desperately to get into the mind of his character and offer some background on mid 90's Vilnius. It seems that Collishaw had been reading too much Kafka and not taking enough notes of what he saw in Vilnius at the time, as Collishaw paints it as a dank, dark, depressing place, which I suppose fits the mood of his anti-hero, Steponas Daumantas. He might as well have called him St. Stephen.
Eventually Collishaw gets around to telling what he set out to tell, and that is a story of the Holocaust. Collishaw draws heavily on poetic and painterly metaphors, creating a very naive version of the Holocaust in Vilnius. It moves along well enough, with a cross-cultural love affair, a good Polish pal, and enough intrigue to keep you interested. But, like the rest of the novel, it doesn't say much about Vilnius. It is simply someone trying to empathize with the history of this city.
I guess one should credit Collishaw for making a game effort. But, that's all it is. He obviously lacks the where-with-all to deal with the material he is trying to assemble in this novel. He covers over it with reasonably compelling characters and an atmospheric setting that will be new to most readers, but in the end this is no more than a bowl of milky soup.
Simply heart breaking.......2004-05-11
This straightforward, beautifully-written novel breaks your heart and puts it back together again. It is not overly ambitious but the author suceeeds in creating a story that draws you in and makes you reflect. It takes courage and skill for a writer to develop serious weaknesses in a character and still have the readers feel compassion for him or her. In most of these situations, I come to dislike the character. But not in this book. Everyone we meet is multi-dimensional and full of complex baggage. They are just trying to survive and find meaning in a cruel and unfair world. But at the end, the book is all about redemption and new opportunities in life no matter how far a person has fallen. What a satisfying experience!
Book Description
Twelve linked, wryly humorous stories about an unforgettable cast of Russian-Jewish immigrants trying to assimilate in a new world.
Masha is just out of high school when her family arrives in Squirrel Hill, Pittsburgh. With touching lightheartedness and tremendous humor, these stories trace her struggles and those of other Russians in the community to find their own place in the new society—seniors alienated from their children, spouses trying to hold their families together while grappling with unemployment and depression, young adults searching for love. In "Dancers" a pair of hedonistic and financially unstable performers invades the home of a married couple. The hero of "The Trajectory of Frying Pans" falls for a coworker who may or may not be trapped in a green-card marriage. In "About Kamyshinskiy" a man, living under the scrutiny of his daughters and neighbors, is trying to start over after the death of his wife. This is an impressive debut about the sometimes painful, sometimes hilarious collision of cultures, religions, and generations in contemporary America.

compassion.......2007-10-01
I found a lot to love in these funny and poignant stories. Above all, what makes them work is Litman's compassion for her characters.
Ellen Litman ROCKS my world.......2007-09-26
I LOVED this book! To all you narrow-minded haters out there: these are stories about love and forgiveness. They are beautiful. I've read this book twice already and will read it again. To anyone who loves fiction, the way it can rescue us, BUY THIS BOOK.
Much more than just another "immigrant book".......2007-09-24
It's ironic that one reviewer here complained that the subjects of the stories in this collection aren't unique to immigrant life, since that very fact is one of the book's strengths: 'The Last Chicken' may be about a very specific immigrant community, but its stories explore themes that are universal to the human experience -- love, death, marriage, aging, jealousy, illness, struggle, joy. This, along with Litman's beautifully clean prose, subtle humor and empathy for her characters, is why the "The Last Chicken" is such a satisfying read.
To the Squirrel Hill residents who have come to vent their anger here: I hate to be the one to break it to you, but the fact that you find Litman's stories to be such an accurate depiction of the realities of your lives is the best possible endorsement you could give the book.
Naturally Litman has drawn on real people and situations to create her characters and stories; all fiction writers do. Ironically, the fictionalized portraits she has painted of Squirrel Hill's residents in her book are far more subtle and sympathetic than the portraits they've painted of their (non-fictional) selves here.
Fantastic Reading!.......2007-09-22
One thing I love about this book is the interconnectedness of the characters. Rather than reading like a regular novel, it reads like a study of a community in a particular time and place--in some ways reminding me of Sherwood Anderson's Winesburg Ohio. At the end of a story I think I've left a character, only to have them pop up in another story. I love that. Until that moment I hadn't realized that I missed the character, was a little sad not to know what happened to them, but then there they are and we get to see them from someone else's perspective and a little further down the line. It is such a beautiful way to organize a book. It makes my commitment to the characters stronger and more lasting. Litman manages it with masterful ease. Also the stories are so moving and so beautifully written. The end of the first story is this dramatic swoop upward that just broke my heart. All these lonely courageous people--Masha, Victor, Natasha, Dinka, Liberman--are treated by Litman's deft hand with such empathy and care, it feels like an honor to be allowed to share in their lives.
Soap opera around "the chicken".......2007-09-22
What painful truth? What are you talking about, people? Litman has not addressed any deep social issues, nor did she talk about things that are uniquely immigrant, there are no "fireworks" in her writing, and she is definitely not the next Amy Tan. Let's not make of this book something that it's not.
Litman's narratives of single women looking for partnership, drudgery jobs, misunderstandings within families, unfair competitions are things one can encounter anywhere in an everyday life. Each story in a book is a peek into a private life of a private person, as seen through Litman's eyes. And what do those eyes see?
"Parents envy their children. Sisters become dangerous -- all that private information they can unleash at a strategically chosen moment. It's about surviving."
A bleak, misanthropic view. Her attempt to hide people's identity is extremely clumsy; they recognize themselves and each other in the multitude of characters Litman has warped here. And this simple but disturbing fact is what's painful.
As to the truth, the only truth here is that this book is just about as educational and entertaining as a day-time show or a soap opera.
And finally, I wonder how many of Litman's advocates would entrust this author with details of their own personal life? Don't be shy, anything will do: terminal illness, divorce, regularity of your sex life, what you yell to your husband when he frustrates you, what your kids say about you when they are angry...
Book Description

Sure to satisfy Simon's core devotees as well as fans of Dennis Lehane and James Ellroy, Last Jew Standing is fastpaced and suspenseful from start to finish.

"Like Fine Wine, You Get Better With Age".......2007-07-14
Connie Briscoe's "The Perfect Life"- True what Tonya and Aaron did to Maxine was low down, but Maxine after 20 something years you're still holding a grudge against them. I say they did you a favor, you've got your husband and kids, move on girlfriend, move on. Lolita Files' "Three For The Road"- Adam took the cowardly way out to end his marriage to Lilibelle, but she found someone better in Chance Landry. The part of the story where she and Chance are having dinner and after a few drinks start singing songs from the Flintstones was so funny to me. Anita Bunkley's "This Time Around"- Danika you go girl for working your way to the top of that male dominated company, with your makeover now you're fierce. Why did you take Raymond back? He may do what he did to you again. I enjoyed this anthology.

THE PERFECT LIFE by Connie Briscoe
Maxine Davis has had it with her boring marriage and smart mouth teenagers. Even the neighborhood they live in is dull. Maxine misses the early days of their marriage - when they went out of their ways to please each other.
A phone call from her mother brings the shocking news of her aunt's death and brings her face to face with her cousin and best friend Tonya. They haven't spoken to each other in twenty years - not since Tonya stole Maxine's fiancé Aaron. What will it take for Maxine to see that she has THE PERFECT LIFE with Curtis?
Connie Briscoe brings to mind just how easy it is to take the people in your life for granted. Maxine's anger and resentment that she's allowed to fester over the years has blinded her to how truly blessed she is with her simple family.
THREE FOR THE ROAD by Lolita Files
Lillibelle Goldman's world is forever changed by the events of 9/11. Not because she lost a loved one, but because that's the day her husband chose to tell her that he's found someone else and wants out of their twenty-five year marriage.
Newly divorced and with the kids away at college, Lilli decides to do something she's only dreamed of - visit Las Vegas. She packs up her car and heads out only to have it stall out on the side of the road during a rain and hail storm. It's there that she meets Chance and his dog, Yancy, and together they opt to share the adventure. Neither of them is looking for romance, but can they resist the desire that soon broils between them?
Lolita Files will have readers smiling with this charmingly poignant tale. While it's sad to read about the demise of Lilli's longtime marriage, I had to admire her for having the guts to take a trip on her own rather than bemoan what could have been.
THIS TIME AROUND by Anita Bunkley
Anika Redmond has spent many years trying to work her way to the top of a male dominated company where she's been employed for the past twenty-two years. She came to work for Cranstar after the collapse of her marriage and put any hopes she may have had for marriage firmly out of her mind.
With a little encouragement from her friend and neighbor, Ming, Anika submits an entry into a competition. The prize? A complete makeover from a popular television program called `A New You.' She's stunned when she receives the phone call that she has been selected as one of the winners of the make over. Will it help her get the job of her dreams? Of course not. What it will do is bolster her sagging spirits and make her feel like a whole new woman with a promising future ahead of her and maybe she'll discover that she does indeed have a happy ending lurking just around the next corner.
I was surprised at how much I enjoyed this story. When I first read that Anika was going to undergo an extreme makeover I was stunned. Then as I read further into the story I realized that the make over didn't change who she is or her position in the company. It does bring a new and exciting aspect to how she feels about herself and how coworkers and associates view her.
Connie Briscoe, Lolita Files and Anita Bunkley bring a new outlook on life to women over forty with these three uplifting tales. These stories transcend racial barriers and make age seem like nothing more than a number. Each of these stories is very different in theme and tone but they all drive home the fact that women of all ages are beautiful and YOU ONLY GET BETTER as the years go by. For most women age is a sensitive issue, but these three authors tackle it extremely well and present women who readers could almost envy because of their spirit and determination to be themselves.

Sadly, Maxine has allowed the past to interfere with her outlook on her life with her husband. Still wallowing in self-pity, the death of Tonya's mother gives her a chance to revisit the past. Maxine attends the funeral, confronts her cousin, and Tonya apologizes. Can Maxine forgive her and embrace the good life she is now living or will she continue to short change herself?
'Three for the Road' by Lolita Files

She's alone for the first time in her life, but surprisingly she does not wilt, instead she metamorphoses. She heads for Las Vegas, meets a newly divorced man traveling with his dog and finds her footing. This chance meeting may be just the catalyst she needs to jumpstart her life.
'This Time Around' by Anita Bunkley
Danika has been divorced from her domineering husband for 25 years; he left because she was "too independent". She has since worked her way up in a male-dominated company. As soon as she is promoted, she has to take a newly acquired company and cut the staff by half. Is this a golden opportunity? The company is run by her controlling ex-husband, now widowed with two teenagers. Danika is the last person he wants to see especially under the current circumstances. With a complete physical makeover Danika exudes a jaunty confidence, but is she prepared to see her 'ex' and can she handle her first assignment without reviving the ghosts from their pasts?
YOU ONLY GET BETTER is for women of all ages, but it may be special for those who have reached 'that' plateau. The three novellas are sassy, uplifting and real.

Wonderful "mature" women characters who find love, peace and hope.......2007-03-07
This is "chick lit" about the older crowd--if you call late 40s-early 50s the older crowd.
Three bestselling authors tell three separate stories about women nearing 50 and in life-changing situations.
The Perfect Life -- Connie Briscoe (New York Times)
Teacher Maxine Davis has hated her childhood best friend (and cousin) because 25 years ago Tonya stole her fiancÇe. Hateful and unforgiving, the death of Tonya's mother gives Maxine a chance to look back to that fateful time. Maxine's mother cajoles her into going to the funeral. Cousin Tonya apologizes. Can Maxine ever forgive and again be part of Tonya's life? Could you?
Three for the Road -- Lolita Files (Essence and Blackboard)
New Yorker Lilibelle's shocking divorced comes on 9-1-1 when she locates her doctor husband in Arizona at a convention, and demands he come home because she is terrified. On that fateful day, he tells her he is never coming home; he loves someone else. Lili had always been indulged by her parents, and then by him. She is now alone in her empty nest. Travel with her across the country (sort of alone) on her trip to discovery, and a chance meeting with a newly divorced man. Can Lili let go of her need for control--and find love?
This Time Around -- Anita Bunkley (Blackboard)
Danika Redmond's single life came after her divorce--he couldn't handle her independence. Everyone he ever loved abandoned him--so he decided to leave her before she left him. She has worked her way up in a male-dominated corporation. When she is promoted, her first assignment is to go to a newly acquired company and cut the staff by half--run by her controlling ex-husband, now widowed with two teenager. He doesn't handle the fact that she is now "his boss" and could fire him. Will she be successful with this first important assignment? Will they get back together?
Minimally important to the story is the fact that the authors and the women in their stories are all African-Americans. I agree, "These fascinating women discover that life, love and everything else gets better with age!"
Armchair Interviews says: The read was fun and done quickly--in order to find out how each one handled that new life.
Book Description
Time. Fate. Death. Desire. Chaos. Fear. They are always there. Constant. Steady. Unyielding. We all deal with them every day of our lives. What about their lives? You say they don't have lives? What if they do? What if they work out of a high rise in downtown Chicago? What if they have to worry about being late for work? What if they need their morning cup of coffee to get them going? What if they have to worry about getting chewed out by their boss if they mess up? In Lynn Warren's Only for this Time these are only some of the things with which "they" have to deal. Nic Avalon is the boss at Immortality Inc., the company for which the Aspects work. He is also Time. He has been since the beginning and he will be until the end. He controls not only his employees but everything. He can stop or speed up time. He can look into the future, the past and with one tiny move can change everything that has ever been or ever will be. The one thing that he can't control is his newest Aspect, Aurora Devereaux, Fate.

Fantastic book.......2006-01-04
Aurora works at Immortality Incorporated. One morning she uses her power as Fate to save the life of a young police officer. By doing so she changes the history of mankind with her newest blunder.
Her boss Nic Avalon (he is Time) is furious with her, because she ignores all the rules repeatedly. They make a deal; Aurora has to find a way to change fate so that her mistake won't change history permanently. But there is one big problem; Nic and Aurora have been drawn to each other since the very first time they met. This attraction will cause a lot of trouble for both of them.
The relationship between Aurora and Nic is really explosive. They act like cats and dogs put together in a closed room. They love to argue and with their mutual attraction their relationship ignites. They both have feelings for one another, but their relationship as employer/employee complicates things. The way which they unravel their problems and conflicts is well described by Lynn Warren.
This is a wonderfully funny and emotional story.
This book is the start of the Immortality Inc. series and it's a fantastic beginning. The whole idea of Immortality Incorporated is fascinating.
Can you imagine going to a job interview and coming back as the immortal Desire or Chaos? I really hope that there will be a lot of sequels to this book.
Only For This Time by Lynn Warren.......2005-11-20
Time comes to life in the persona of Nic Avalon, owner of Immortality, Inc. As Time, Nic controls everything in the world-- he can stop or speed up time, can see the past and the future, and has the power to change the outcome of anything that has already happened or will happen. However, he has rigid rules about not interfering with the historical timeline, and will only do so if absolutely necessary and nothing major in the past or future is affected.
Nic has a staff of aspects under his control- Death, Desire, Chaos, Fear and Fate. When hired, each employee is given certain powers by Nic and made immortal , to aid him in making sure everything in the world runs smoothly according to the timeline. Should he find it necessary to fire any of them, he will wipe all memory of Immortality, Inc., from their minds and they will no longer be immortal.
Nic hired Aurora Deveraux as Fate two years ago, because he liked her spunk and her compassion. However, she is impulsive and drives Nic to distraction as he finds himself having to fix things he decides she shouldn't have changed; she's constantly called on the carpet by him for being too compassionate. Now she's made a serious error by saving the life of a policeman, which will negate the cure for cancer being discovered in the future. Nic reluctantly gives her a chance to fix this mistake; if she can't, she'll lose her job and all memory of Immortality, Inc., and Nic. They end up working together, and the sparks fly as they spend time together, since they've been secretly attracted to each other. Yet Nic feels that as Time he cannot allow himself to have a relationship with anyone, though he's finding Aurora harder and harder to resist. He breaks his own rules and stops time just to have one "taste" of her in the middle of a dance floor, telling himself it will be only this one time and that he'll have to let her go. Even though Aurora doesn't believe she has a chance with Nic, she's desperate to stay near him, and to keep her job. Chaos and Desire tamper with Time's own thread in the timeline to cause mischief between the two, not realizing that Time is more powerful than any of them and will discover what they've done. This causes more trouble between Nic and Aurora, but she fights to stay and determines to show Time that he can't always control everything, that Fate has her own way of making things work out the way they should.
This was such an interesting story, about godlike beings running the world as a business in the modern world, with each employee carefully selected to suit the name of his or her aspect name and fulfill their particular role in helping Time control what happens to all the people in the world. It was unique and fun, with a steamy romance building between two opposites. I look forward to the next books in the series to see what's in store for the other aspects, and to read more about how Time and Fate are getting along.

Having a lot of fun with time.......2005-11-20
Aurora really botched things this time. And she didn't even know it. As an Aspect at Immoratlity, Incorporated, for two years Aurora's job has been Fate. But this morning when she witnessed an accident waiting to happen, Fate intervened and saved a police officer's life and she was now finding out from her coworkers how she had royally messed things up. That officer was supposed to die and the future has been altered and not for the good.
Nic isn't sure what to do with Aurora. Yes, she's been a lot of trouble in the time she's worked for him. But there's just something about her, her enthusiasm, her zest for life, that keeps him slightly off balance and ready for battle whenever she is near. This time things are different, but Nic still gives her an opportunity to make things right and they strike a deal to allow Fate to get the future back on track and to allow Aurora to keep her job.
Lynn Warren's Only For This Time is a rollicking fun time with Chaos, Fear, Desire, Fate, and Time himself in the world of Immorality, Inc. and with the lives and love of Nic and Aurora. These two shoot sparks at and through each other with word and touch and their lovemaking is hot! They drive each other insane and finally explode when they can contain themselves no longer.
I like the different take on time and how it can be handled or mishandled. And I love Nic and Aurora. They were made for each other and they are as fun as can be. You can't go wrong with book!
