The man - who is never given a name - has no religion or philosophy to cling to. Reviewer Gail Caldwell of the Boston Globe writes that the book is a "swift, brutal novel about a heartbreakingly ordinary subject, and it is also testament to Roth that the book leaves you a little breathless and not at all bereft." (Original Airdate: 5/18/06)
