Synopsis
Ira Stigman's polarised life has never been more cruel. On the one side is EdithWelles, his supporter and friend , now his lover; she believes in him. On the other is his shameful immigrant origins, his poverty, his family with their arguements and lack of spohistication. Worst, there is his incestuous relations with his sister, and also hi cousin, who may be pregnant. This fourth and final volume, to be published posthumously, brings to a close one of America's most extraordinary literary odyssey's.
