Industry Reviews
"OLD MEN AT MIDNIGHT is an uncomfortable book to read, and not only because its central characters live through some of the most brutal periods of the last century. It is peopled by irascible, evasive figures who seem to remain closed to the reader....[Potok's] book asks the reader to consider the parts, not trust the whole. And if it is approached in this way, OLD MEN AT MIDNIGHT holds many rewards."
