Summary: Interesting, despite its subject matter.
Comment: A family under intense economic pressure is helped, begrudgingly, by a priest and his somewhat dissolute neighbor. Not surprisingly, the novel explores people's response to need. Primarily, though, it is a novel of state of mind: loneliness, desperation, loss of faith, love. It manages to be interesting, without resorting to any facile devices of plot or character to hold the reader. The writing is very good, although if I were Bausch's editor for this book, I would have tried to eliminate some of the descriptive analogies which just don't work, and detract from the force of his simple prose.
