"Robert Fulford on Books: Levin among the Barbarians
By Robert Fulford, Toronto, Ontario, Canada
November 1, 1961
"Levin is the son of a thief, an ex-alcoholic, a failed lover, professor only of an M.A. in English in New York university... The confrontation of Levin and the Oregon-like state of Cascadia is at the centre of Bernard Malamud's novel, A New Life, one of the surprises of the literary season."
