"Together they effectively introduced a new style of American fiction. The "Gentile" era of Fitzgerald Hemingway and Faulkner began with Bellow to give way to a new Jewish tradition and a sense of moral and social alarm. Bellow's characters are generally anti-heroes caught up in the existential dilemma of trying to define themselves with some measure of dignity despite the constant impediments of objective and subjective circumstances."
