New York Fiction : The Tenants of Moonbloom
The Tenants of Moonbloom
Norman Moonbloom's brother, a slumlord, hires him to collect rent in the buildings he owns in Manhattan. Making his rounds, Moonbloom confronts a wild assortment of brilliantly described urban characters, among them a gay jazz musician with a sideline as a gigolo, a Holocaust survivor, and a brilliant young writer modeled on James Baldwin. He finds that he is drawn, in spite of his best judgment, into a desperate attempt to improve their lives. This comic tour de force is a neglected masterpiece of 1960s America.
