In The History of Love, Nicole Krauss "constructed—with nods to Bellow and Singer and a kiss blown across the years to Bruno Schulz—a stirring, soulful novel that speaks to our own losses and loves," wrote Ken Kalfus. Ms. Krauss’s new novel is Great House. Cynthia Ozick's new novel, Foreign Bodies, is a re-casting of Henry James's The Ambassadors. "There are many reasons to admire Cynthia Ozick's fiction," wrote Michael Dirda. "Stylistic verve, sly humor, kindliness, engagement with serious themes (the Holocaust, in particular), an affection for New York’s ethnic life, and the comforting sense she conveys that a reader is in good hands."
