62. Gaddis Annotations - Carpenter's Gothic - Review - Cynthia Ozick
    Review Fakery and Stony Truths New York Times July 7, 1985 by cynthia ozick © 1997 The New York Times Company. CARPENTER’S GOTHIC by William Gaddis 262 pp.  
    http://www.williamgaddis.org/gothic/gothicrevozicknyt.shtml
    
    Extractions: 262 pp. New York: Elisabeth Sifton Books/Viking. $16.95. THIS is William Gaddis’s third work of fiction in 30 years. That sounds like a sparse stream, and misrepresents absolutely. Mr. Gaddis is a deluge. “The Recognitions,” his first novel, published in 1955, matches in plain bulk four or five ordinary contemporary novels. His second, “JR,” a burlesquing supplementary footnote appearing two decades later, is easily equivalent to another three or four. For those whom tonnage has kept away, “Carpenter’s Gothic” - a short novel, but as mazily and mercilessly adroit as the others - should disclose Mr. Gaddis’s terrifying artfulness once and for all. “Carpenter’s Gothic” may be Gaddis-in-little, but it is Gaddis to the brim. With fewer publications so far than he can count on one hand, Mr. Gaddis has not been “prolific” (that spendthrift coin); instead he has been prodigious, gargantuan, exhaustive, subsuming fates and conditions under a hungry logic. His two huge early novels are great vaults or storehouses of crafty encyclopedic scandal - omniscience thrown into the hottest furnaces of metaphor. Mr. Gaddis knows almost everything: not only how the world works - the pragmatic cynical business-machine that we call worldliness - but also how myth flies into being out of the primeval clouds of art and death and money.

    Extractions: Main Yesterday CAMERA (the Committee for Accuracy in Middle East Reporting in America) held a conference on fighting "Jewish defamers of Israel." A couple hundred people in the basement of the Park Avenue Synagogue that beacon to assimilationist German Jews. I found the conference enormously encouraging. For one thing, the group was almost all older generation. I put the average age at 62. Even the snacks were out of date, all brownies and sweet muffins and cupcakes with a quarter inch of icing. This group is more out of the mainstream than I am! For another thing, I recognized these older Jews as my people. I felt comfortable with them. I had a warm reunion with an old friend from the Jewish scientific community that I went to as a boy, and we talked about antisemitism in the newspaper business. All the people in the room were Jews with a traditional sense of ethnic cohesion: Jews who feel deeply isolated from the gentile community and have little sense of the death of anti-Semitism in America. Several of the speakers had old world accents. Walt and Mearsheimer’s names were invoked again and again, from start to finish, as if they were Nazis.

    Extractions: I. Cynthia Ozick's latest book of essays, The Din in the Head , contains a surprising splinter of biography. In "James, Tolstoy, and My First Novel," Ozick reveals that she once taught freshman composition to engineering students. The mind reelsnot just from the essay, which is one of the collection's best (a direct response to "The Lesson of the Master" from , and another installment in her lifelong rumination on James and ambition)the mind reels at the prospect of having Ozick as a composition instructor, of having her guide you through a course that is still the burden of every undergrad. Aside from inflaming pedagogical jealousy, the detail feels appropriate, and when considering the shelf of nonfiction she has written alongside her fiction, her true effect becomes clear: Ozick has slowly been teaching us how to write. Everything is there: the rhetoric swinging from the semi-colons; the javelin-like thrust of the dash; the blood-rush of the exclamation point; the subtle side-of-the-mouth allusion. But this is not all. She has also taught us how to read. Ozick embodies the ideal readerpropped in bed, book after book placed on the belly, reading modeled as a private, endlessly renewable rapture. Over the course of her essays the word "conflagration" repeats over and over. But you forgive this repetitiontrue talent repeats with emphatic shamelessnessbecause the word is apt, not only in each particular context, but as a metaphor for the essays themselves, each one a furnace of prose, a bonfire of the humanities.

In the United States she has received the most acclaim for her short stories, while in Britain she is more highly regarded as an essayist. Ozick herself takes issue with the distinction; in her introduction to (2000) she writes, "What I am repudiating is the inference that . . . an essay is generally more than simply another fictiona short story told in the form of an argument, or a history, or even (once in a very great while) an illumination. But never a tenet." Yet, she is perhaps best known internationally for her Holocaust fiction, in particular for The Shawl (1989), comprising "The Shawl" (often anthologized) and "Rosa," which were initially published separately in

Nowhere has that question been posed more starkly, or with greater poetry and drama, than in "The Book of Job". In telling the story of a righteous man who is stripped of all that he loves on the apparent whim of the Creator, "Job" compels readers to consider the relationship between power and justice, to assess the depth of their own faith, and to put aside the notion of a God that conforms to human hopes and imaginings.

    Extractions: Since the 1970s, Cynthia Ozick's stories, novels, and essays have gradually earned high critical acclaim. Victor Strandberg's Greek Mind/Jewish Soul is a comprehensive study of this exceptionally gifted author, correlating her creative art and her intellectual development. Strandberg devotes considerable attention to Ozick's struggle to maintain her Jewish religion and culture within a society saturated with Christian and secular values. By examining the influence of Western philosophical and literary traditions on Ozick and her particular social circumstances, Strandberg is able to ask larger questions about the merit of Ozick's work and its place within American literature. Strandberg begins by chronicling the cultural dilemmas of Ozick's early life. The daughter of struggling immigrant parents, Ozick sometimes endured anti-Semitic ostracism from classmates in the New York public schools. But even as she deeply immersed herself in her Judaic heritage, avidly learning Hebrew and studying Jewish history, she found the Gentile heritage irresistible, beginning with fairy tales in childhood and graduating to George Eliot, Edith Wharton, and Henry James. Her studies in Latin likewise awakened a love for classical literature that impinged powerfully upon her books, particularly

    Extractions: Main [Published in PLAYBACK:stl , December 2004] Cynthia Ozick’s intelligent, lively, funny new novel (Houghton Mifflin, 320 pgs., $24) is a refugee story—the Mitwisser family of seven has escaped Hitler’s Germany and landed in New York—but with a twist: the character most in flight, most amid a reinvention, isn’t a Mitwisser at all, but an American man of massive inheritance: James A’Bair, known since childhood as the Bear Boy, world-famous subject of his father’s children’s books. Both are attempting rebirth: the Bear Boy, resentful of his storybook shadow, sets off in the world alone; the Mitwissers, having left behind prestigious positions in Berlin, attempt to start life anew from a chaotic three-story house in the Bronx. Connecting these two narrative strands is the narrator Rose, who, herself alone in the world, accepts an undefined job as an “assistant” to Herr Mitwisser, the household’s booming religious-scholar patriarch. Like almost every character in this brimming novel, Herr M. is rendered richly. Here he is in the words of Rose, who is to type up the man’s lectures as he spouts (though the typewriter she’s been given is worthless): I noticed now the color of his eyes—startlingly different from the brown intelligence of the rest of the family. Professor Mitwisser’s eyes were acutely blue, as blue as the intensest blue of Dutch porcelain; they looked dyed: dipped once, dipped twice. I was shocked by their waver of bewilderment—like heat vibrating across a field—and it occurred to me that he scarcely knew what I meant by ribbon, that the machine was as alien to him as the map of any mythical island.
