FALLEN ANGELS, Harold Bloom's new book, is
reviewed in the
Jewish Exponent. Excerpt:
This is the way the book proceeds, with this kind of expansive scholarship delivered in the clearest, least cumbersome manner, whether Bloom is talking about Elijah, Lilith, the fall from grace or the angel of death. It may be that Bloom, in the hunger of his critical appetites and the awesome range of his learning, has created a new genre completely, instead of cornering one -- the gift book for the intellectual crowd.
