Clerical Errors. A Novel.

Uncorrected proof of Alan Isler's Clerical Errors

Alan Isler1934–2010
Proof copy. 8vo. Pp. [vi], 278, [1]. Purple, printed wraps.
Author's fourth novel. The long-buried past of a rogue(ish) priest, ensconced in a Shropshire mansion and given over to kabbalistic studies, is about to catch up with him. Comic, referential writing, in the bitter-sweet tradition of the solitary Jew in a Gentile world. In 1994, Isler won the National Jewish Book Award and the Jewish Quarterly Wingate Prize for his first novel, The Prince of West End Avenue. "A master of comic seriousness, or serious comedy, if you'd rather." –Hugo Barnacle, Sunday Times
