A review by tricky
The Victim by Saul Bellow
3.0
Leventhal is a man full of self doubt and always wondering if the other guy knows better. He meets, seemingly by chance an old colleague who blames Leventhal for a past incident.
I have not read any of Bellow's work before and found this book both frustrating and engaging.
I was never sure about Leventhal's character. Was he a victim or just riding the coat tails of life?
It's a novel that is wonderfully written with fantastic descriptions. It is thought provoking and infuriating.
