Items related to The Men's Club (FSG Classics)
Seven men, friends and strangers, gather in a house in Berkeley. They intend to start a men's club, the purpose of which isn't immediately clear to any of them; but very quickly they discover a powerful and passionate desire to talk. First published in 1981, The Men's Club is a scathing, pitying, absurdly dark and funny novel about manhood in the age of therapy. "The climax is fitting, horrific, and wonderfully droll" (The New York Times Book Review).

Review:
About the Author:
"Chekhov and Kafka, after consulting Chaucer, might have collaborated on The Men's Club. It is excellent." --John Leonard, The New York Times
"Leonard Michaels's stories stand alongside those of his best Jewish contemporaries--Grace Paley and Philip Roth. Like theirs, Michaels's vernacular achieves the level of song." --Mona Simpson, The New York Times
"Leonard Michaels was an original; everything he wrote, like it or not, came alive. His prose moved at a fast clip and paid readers the compliment of assuming they could match his mental velocity, with a concise, pungent and pyrotechnic style that tolerated no flab." --Philip Lopate, The Nation
Leonard Michaels (1933-2003) was the author of five collections of stories and essays--Going Places, I Would Have Saved Them If I Could, Shuffle, A Girl with a Monkey, and To Feel These Things--as well as two novels, Sylvia and The Men's Club. All of his fiction will be reissued as FSG Classics.
