The Rise of David Levinsky
AuthorAbraham Cahan
ISBN0140186875
I read this one a long time ago and was really drawn in by the pathos and the humor, and, of course, the journey. Cahan refuses to make this a simple story about good and evil. Levinsky falls as he rises, and rises as he falls, and perhaps there is something almost universally true about the human predicament...

If you had to give America a voice, it’s been said more than once, that voice would be Willie Nelson’s.
