New edition of the controversial 1933 novel by Maxwell Bodenheim, the "King of the Greenwich Village Bohemians." From the 1933 first edition: Here's Maxwell Bodenheim's biggest book about fast, modern life in New York-the novel for which Georgie May, Replenishing Jessica and Ninth Avenue were only a preparation. It's the story of two bright, vivacious New York girls, game and scrappy kids full of youth's zest for life, and willing to go anywhere, try anything to satisfy their fierce craving for excitement. Their quest leads them to New York's toughest spots, the East Side, the Far West of gangland and the waterfront dives, the Spanish Section, Union Square with its fearless and desperate radicals, and the racketeer hells on the Broadway side streets. Their adventures and their men make a story of enthralling power; and their discovery of the only way to get clear of New York Madness brings it to a climax of terrific punch. Bodenheim has never written a more glamorous, sweeping story, reflecting sophisticate New York's own racy lingo.

"What doest thou want of me?" asked the Rabbi of him, "tell me quickly, in what I can render thee a service; for thou seemest to stand in need of it." "Yes, Rabbi," replied the stranger earnestly, "that Ido; and still I find it difficult to express myself freely of my affairs." "Be it what it may, that lies heavily on thy heart, God will give me strength that I may afford thee help and consolation." "Listen then, Rabbi," said the unknown. "I am a countryman of Judaea; God has amply blessed me with worldly goods; he gave me fields and vineyards, oxen and sheep in abundance; he also granted me a wife and two children." "Andthou hast cause to complain?" eagerly interrupted him the Rabbi. "And two children," repeated the man after a somewhat long and distressing pause; "but of one of them, my son, has become rebellious to me, he is a disobedient son, he it is who has changed for me all the sweet gifts which Heaven has bestowed on me, into naught but wormwood." "What is the guilt of thy son?" inquired Jochanan. "Has he proved himself ungrateful towards thee? has he raised his hand against thee?" "He has dug my grave," answered the stranger, gloomily. "I loved him in a manner God demands it from parents. I bestowed on him every care from his first infancy. I already derived joy from the thought to behold in him a man who, with skilful and industrious hands, and with a pious and virtuous heart, could administer and increase the estates, which his father had acquired, while thinking of him, hones...

Reprint of the original, first published in 1874.

Call it zimzum : how we manage the scandal of our progress from desire to the void, through contraction and distractedness. In this perilously original work, composed of six rigorously crafted parts—and informed by a desperately libidinous, grotesquely comic rage—one of the most controversial figures in contemporary American letters brilliantly captures our humanity and Zeitgeist . Central to the novel is the ravishing shriek of a man who seeks to preserve what little there is left to him. It is as if his head were in an ever-tightening vise as he frantically seeks connection with others, knowing all the while the futility of the enterprise. He yearns for some carnal knowledge. He is obsessed with the successful operation of a sexual device. His lover is insensitive, self-absorbed. What is he—a former insane asylum inmate, whose motto used to be "share and share alike," but is now "fair is fair"—supposed to do? Exuberant in the music of its ordinary utterances, anguished and poignant in its declaration of the facts of life, Zimzum is Lish's most compelling novel.
