Stand-up Tragedian
a novel by Chaim Bertman
“Stand-up Tragedian is the story of one man’s decade-long quest to write a book. It is a coming-of-age story—not of childhood, but of the celebrated twenties.”
“Bertman’s eye is trained toward the subtleties of desire, anecdote, and beauty. Each slice of perception is also a metaphysical proposition, cleanly reflected in his syntax. He is an anthropologist of the awkward.”
