Description:
In eight stories, Nathan Englander dissects the human soul. In the title story, the marriages of two Jewish couples are examined and the Holocaust is reduced to a parlor game: 'Would you let me hide with you if you were not of Jewish descent and there was a new Holocaust?'
In an imaginative way, he analyses the big questions of life that everyone struggles with, about meaning, family ties and, of course, love. The stories also provide a glimpse into Englander's own soul - in an empathetic way, he makes us part of his life and his family. In doing so, he repeatedly seeks out the boundaries between fiction and reality. With What We Talk About When We Talk About Anne Frank, Englander proves once again that he is one of the best American authors.
