His Cyclopean gaze reflects on the degradations of city life while looking deep into the sufferings of the human soul. "Sorry for all and sore at heart," he observes how greater luxury and leisure have only led to more human suffering. To Mr. Sammler - who by the end of this ferociously unsentimental novel has found the compassionate consciousness necessary to bridge the gap between himself and his fellow beings - a good life is one in which a person does what is "required of him." To know and to meet the "terms of the contract" was as true a life as one could live.]]></description><link>https://christchurch.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S37C35718</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://christchurch.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S37C35718</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Bellow, Saul]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 31 Jan 1970 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://christchurch.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/35718037</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url/></item><item><title><![CDATA[El planeta de Mr. Sammler]]></title><link>https://christchurch.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S37C1847787</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://christchurch.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S37C1847787</guid><category><![CDATA[EBOOK]]></category><category><![CDATA[spa]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Bellow, Saul]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 31 Jan 2005 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://christchurch.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/1847787037</comments><format>EBOOK</format><subtitle/><language>spa</language><image_url/></item><item><title><![CDATA[A Century of Fiction in the New Yorker]]></title><description><![CDATA[There is simply no A-Z like the alphabet of fiction writers who have appeared in the pages of The New Yorker in the last hundred years. The book boasts inarguable classics like Salinger's "A Perfect Day for Bananafish," Annie Proulx's "Brokeback Mountain," and Shirley Jackson's "The Lottery" alongside stunners to be rediscovered. Some stories defined a moment or a now-lost world (Isaac Bashevis Singer's "The Cafeteria"); others showed us a whole new way fiction could sound and feel ("The Red Girl," by Jamaica Kincaid). With this vivid selection, Treisman showcases how our fiction has changed over time, and reminds us that past literary fashions continue to ripple outward in the fiction we love today. What does a Donald Barthelme mean to the craft of short fiction now? What will a Yiyun Li mean to the next generation of readers and writers? This exquisite tour of the form as practiced at its highest level will leap directly into the hearts of readers of all ages, all stripes, and is a beautiful tribute to the magazine's influence on our literary culture over the last century.]]></description><link>https://christchurch.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S37C1758289</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://christchurch.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S37C1758289</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><pubDate>Fri, 31 Jan 2025 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://christchurch.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/1758289037</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>1925-2025</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url/></item><item><title><![CDATA[It All Adds up]]></title><link>https://christchurch.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S37C1615046</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://christchurch.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S37C1615046</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Bellow, Saul, 1915-2005]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 31 Jan 1994 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://christchurch.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/1615046037</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>From the Dim Past to the Uncertain Future : A Nonfiction Collection</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url/></item><item><title><![CDATA[Geng duo de ren si yu xin sui]]></title><link>https://christchurch.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S37C1379919</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://christchurch.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S37C1379919</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[chi]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Bellow, Saul, 1915-2005]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 31 Jan 2022 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://christchurch.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/1379919037</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle/><language>chi</language><image_url/></item><item><title><![CDATA[Herzog]]></title><description><![CDATA[An instant classic when it appeared in 1964, Herzog is the story of Moses E.

Ravelstein suggests in turn that Chick write a memoir or a life of him, and during the course of a celebratory trip to Paris the two share thoughts on mortality, philosophy and history, loves and friends, old and new, and vaudeville routines from the remote past.

The story behind The Actual belongs to Harry Trellman, an aging, astute businessman who has never belonged anywhere: not in the Chicago orphanage where he was sent by his mother, not in high school (too brainy), not even on the streets, where his vaguely Asian features set him apart from the rest of the pack. As for human attachments, they are like everything else in his life, singular and irregular. But Harry has always been a keen observer ? a trait not unnoticed by billionaire Sigmund Adletsky, who retains Harry as his adviser on human affairs. The two men discuss ordinary things, but the older man is also sharp enough to realize that, behind his stoic mask, Harry harbours some intense feelings for a certain woman. That woman - the object of some forty years' passion - is Amy Wustrin, a twice-divorced interior designer who's walked through her share of life's ups and downs. Thanks to Sigmund, she walks unexpectedly into Harry's life. And this time he's not about to let her go.]]></description><link>https://christchurch.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S37C1631102</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://christchurch.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S37C1631102</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Bellow, Saul, 1915-2005]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 31 Jan 1997 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://christchurch.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/1631102037</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url/></item><item><title><![CDATA[Something to Remember Me by]]></title><link>https://christchurch.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S37C1610164</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://christchurch.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S37C1610164</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Bellow, Saul, 1915-2005]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 31 Jan 1991 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://christchurch.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/1610164037</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>Three Tales</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url/></item><item><title><![CDATA[Humboldt's Gift]]></title><description><![CDATA[Saul Bellow's Pulitzer Prize winning novel explores the long friendship between Charlie Citrine, a young man with an intense passion for literature, and the great poet Von Humboldt Fleisher.

"What Kind of Day Did You Have?" explores the humorous conflicts in a single day in the lives of a divorcée and her lovers. Reanimating the Chicago of the past as only Bellow can, "Zetland: By a Character Witness" tells the story of the early life of a brilliant but eccentric artist.
