<p><strong>"An unbeatable stylist with a track record of dilating small moments of observation into wide swaths of philosophy and psychology . . . a proud belletrist, Koestenbaum shakes against narrative like a vibrator that switches on in its plastic packaging." ーDaniel Felsenthal, <em>Vulture</em></strong></p> <p>**Named a Most Anticipated Book by <em>Vulture</em>, <em>Electric Literature</em>, <em>Our Culture</em>, and <em>Lit Hub</em></p> <p>A psychosexual relationship between a rabbi and the man devoted to him goes off the rails in this explosive novel.**</p> <p>The rabbi is, to the untrained eye, far from desirable. Lofty and disorderly, aging and constantly losing members of his flock, he is nonetheless the singular object of obsession for the self-abjecting narrator of <em>My Lover, the Rabbi</em>. From the start of their psychosexual affair, the two men torment, pleasure, and manipulate each other with ardor. When they’re apart, the narrator manically contemplates every element of the rabbi’s being: his alluring adopted son, his false erudition, his patrilineage, his broken-down Pontiac, his out-of-state husband (who the narrator has also slept with), and, maybe most of all, the universe between the rabbi’s legs. Spending time together in the narrator's bed, in a tiny town near Hoboken, New Jersey, that our narrator is “devastated to admit is my personal address,” a tender, volatile intimacy brews and curdles. To sustain it, the narrator continues on an unrelenting, increasingly urgent quest to understand the mercurial, ardent rabbi's mysterious pastーthat is, until he begins to question reality itself. In the process, conflicting truths about the rabbi emerge, with drastic consequences for both men and those around them.</p> <p>The first novel in nearly twenty years from one of our most acclaimed stylists, Wayne Koestenbaum’s <em>My Lover, the Rabbi</em> is a sui generis spiral of lascivious thrills and uncanny hilarity, exposing in delirious detail the dangersーand spoilsーof true love.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。
