Alison Lurie: The War Between the Tates
I read Alison Lurie's The War Between the Tates because Professor Reingold said he was just finishing it, and it was very good. The story is set in the 60's, and tells the struggles of a divided family. The father, Brian Tate, is a professor of political science at Cornith University. His wife Erica, a well educated Harvard graduate, manages the house and their adolecent children. After years of a strong, stable marriage, their family life begins to unhinge. First, their kids, being adolecents, are continually abnoxious. Next, their friends have marrital troubles. Most importantly, Brian aquieces to the romantic pursuits of Wenee, one of his graduate students. Subsequently, Erica discovers the affair, and Wendee becomes pregnant. Much turmoil ensues. This includes a temporary separation, when Brian lives with Wendee, and Erica briefly sees an old friend named Sandy Fickelstein. Eventually though Brian and Erica attempt to reconcile and end their "war." While I found the story interesting, I thought it could have been trimmed down without much loss. Still, the prose does contain a few gems. The best one is:

The Last Resort
Alison Lurie
Random House, 1998 321pp
ISBN: 0-7011-6713-0
reviewed by Ann Skea
This is Alison Lurie's first novel for ten years, but she has not lost her touch. All that has happened is that her characters, like many of her readers, are ten years older. They now have grown-up children, a different perspective on life, and new, and not always comforting, prospects before them. Lurie is as acute as ever in her observation of human nature. We recognise her characters as particular "sorts" of people whose behaviour we think we can predict. They are almost, but never quite, stereotypes, and half the pleasure of Lurie's novels is in being allowed to play amateur psychologist, share her characters' thoughts, and see how illogical people can be. Wilkie Walker [not a very inspiring name] is a successful environmental scientist, and a world-famous writer and naturalist. Wilkie is seventy and no longer "flavour of the month", as his new, young lecture agent brashly tells him. Wilkie's friends and contemporaries are mostly retired or dead, and Wilkie thinks he has bowel cancer. Jennie, Wilkie's wife of twenty-five years, is forty-six. She is used to being regarded as a "walking anachronism", and being patronised or attacked by feminists, because she has happily devoted her life to looking after Wilkie and helping him with his work. She loves Wilkie and he, in turn, is devoted to her and shares all his thoughts with her. But Wilkie does not tell her about his health problem, and he resolves to commit suicide before his condition becomes a painful burden to both of them. This secret changes him, and Jennie suddenly finds that Wilkie is acting strangely. He hardly speaks to her and she has no idea what can be wrong.

'The Last Resort' by Alison Lurie Character development missing in action Sunday, August 23, 1998 By Diana Nelson Jones, Post-Gazette Staff Writer The Last Resort By Alison Lurie Henry Holt
Alison Lurie has written a strange little soap opera that alternates between the comic and the tragic like a drunk on a bicycle. It manages to be neither. The main character is Jenny Walker, although the book’s star is her husband, Wilkie. The description of him seems to be a fictional veil of a real person, hyperbolized as if for the sake of character but really at the expense of character. He is a world-famous naturalist, one of the fathers of the environmental movement who — get this — doesn’t have much tolerance for people. Pull out your cliche drawer, he’s in there. He is much older than Jenny. Met her when he was a teacher and she was a beautiful student. You can imagine him looking sort of craggy and New England-ish. Hey, he’s from New England. That’s interesting. He couldn’t be from Ohio or Arkansas since he is clipped, reserved, disdainful and erudite. He has to be from New England. The cliche police are strict about these things.

Saturday, August 23, 1997, at 12:30 AM PT Home in Ithaca, N.Y., where it is raining, just as it was in San Francisco. The local attitude toward this is mild acceptance ("We had to cancel the picnic, but it's good for the garden"), whereas in San Francisco, the reaction was one of almost supernatural horror ("Really, it never rains in August here, something must be wrong").
In Ithaca, national and international issues shrink in importance: The headlines in the local paper announce that a bridge has been opened, and that a nearby town is celebrating its 200 th anniversary with a parade, fireworks, and the re-enactment of a Civil War battle. It's also restful to read the local crime reports: Highlights this week were a fight in a bar, some cases of drunken driving, the theft of an early-model Nintendo game from a yard sale, and an arrest for shoplifting "items including ... school supplies, clothing, and raspberry Fig Newtons" from Kmart. This summer I am reading fiction for a literary prize. Since over 250 books have been submitted, and my list of 10 possible winners is due in two weeks, I can't look at every word. Instead, I read the first five pages of every book, and if I like it, the next 20 or 30. Then I either read the whole thing or put it aside. Luckily for the contestants, there are four other judges.

Foreign Affairs
Alison Lurie
I read this when I was in my 30s. On re reading it now, it says a lot more to me. I wonder if the writer set herself a challenge - to get the 2 most unlikely people in bed together. I enjoyed the chapters about the middle-aged woman (Vinnie) but I wasn't so interested in the handsome young man, Fred. Rory was halfway through this book. He agreed that the author had written the women better than the men. He was uneasy about the hidden motivation of the book - all four characters are just after an affair, a bit of illicit sex. He thought that the author was good at writing about manners, conventions and the way they behave when they are at home and abroad.

The Last Resort
Alison Lurie
Read Foreign Affairs for the R4 programme and liked it more than had expected so went in search of more Alison Lurie. This book was ok, though nothing really special. Interesting to note that one of the characters had appeared briefly in Foreign affairs. Not sure whether this happens in other books - probably only noticed because read one immediately after the other. But like the idea of a character continuing. Must be frustrating for authors sometimes to create an interesting character and then have to stop writing about them.

roman
Synopsis Notre avis : Extraits
" Même aujourd'hui, la proportion de personnages âgés dans les oeuvres de fiction reste faible. Les conventions ont la vie dure, et le romancier contemporain, tel un jardinier moderne, reconstruit le paysage naturel, supprimant la plupart des vieux arbres pour laisser de la place aux jeunes plants qui n'ont pas encore été greffés et dont les racines ne s'enfoncent pas profondément. Vinnie a accepté cette convention ; il y a des années qu'elle essaie de s'habituer à l'idée que le reste de sa vie ne sera que l'épilogue d'un roman qui n'a jamais été, il faut le dire, passionnant.
Mais indépendamment de son âge, le " soi " est sujet aux lois constantes de l'optique. Même si nous ne jouons dans la vie des autres qu'un rôle périphérique, chacun de nous constitue toujours un point central autour duquel le monde entier tourne comme les rayons d'une roue. Et ce monde, songe Vinnie maintenant, n'est pas celui de la littérature anglaise. Il est plein de gens de plus de cinquante ans qui en ont encore pour un bon quart de siècle à être présents et dans une forme satisfaisante : tout le temps qu'il faut pour avoir des aventures et évoluer, et même pour vivre héroïquement et connaître des transformations.
