"Bernard Malamud's New Tale"
by Edwin Safford, Providence, RI
"Enter S. Levin, S. for Seymour, bearded, thirty, 'man of purpose after wasted years,' seeking a new identity in the groves of Academie,
here in the guise of a small technological college in our Pacific northwest."
"He bears scars, open wounds,really, of a unhappy past in New York City."
