Bringing together six classicpieces with an abundance of previously uncollected material, There Is Simply Too Much to Think Aboutis a powerful reminder not only of Bellow's genius but also of his enduringplace in the Western canon, and it is sure to be widely reviewed and talked aboutfor years to come.
