About the book:
“Collection A Silver Dish isa vialof essenceof Saul Bellow’s storytelling skills. All that has always characterized Saul Bellow as a writer, his style and language, depth of insight, specific humour and constant resistance to the nihilism of our times – appear in these short stories, too, but much more approachable and easily noticeable than in his novels.
“With these stories, as well as in the short novels that ensued, Bellow confirmed his remarkable and isolated place in the contemporary American literature. Accused of being, on the one hand, old-fashioned and, on the other, arrogant and dry, he still keeps trying to give answers to questions who we are, what we are, what we are made of and what we are looking for here.”
