2.0 out of 5 stars Successful diatribe about "modern" life, Dec 28 2003
By Ian Muldoon (Coffs Harbour, NSW Australia) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: The Penitent (Mass Market Paperback)
Although tagged as a novel, this work is a singular example of a polemic or diatribe even rant in the form of a monologue by one Joseph Shapiro whose target is modern America (c 1969) which country and its customs is synonymous with Sodom. Art, marriage etc in their modern manifestations are instances of how corrupt this society is. Purity can be found in the traditional Jewish faith. Joseph might be right. But it doesn't necessarily make for a riveting read. Most debates where only one side is heard, don't. For the converted only who like the sound of their own ideas.
