Jeremiah Bliss is ticked off. He’s angry at literary agents and publishers, and has little patience for dullards, but he writes beautifully about his bete noires, his wife and son, and his career in politics and teaching. Having lost his adult son to madness, his beloved wife to cancer, and then even his dog to old age, he looks back with love, regret, and sorrow over the course of his life, recounting the highs and lows, including his astonishing claim at having directly encountered God three different times. My Inferiors is a masterpiece; a character driven exploration of life filled with remarkable insight and wisdom, coldly incisive and intensely sanguine. There is nothing else like this in American letters; sort of a cross between Diary of a Country Priest and King Lear; sublime, beautiful, terrifying in its own way, yet filled with tenderness and love. Intelligent, witty, and honest.
