This was an excellent piece. Much better than the typical Maroon fare. I never liked Bellow very much, but now I find myself appreciating all this appreciation of him, mostly because it ties in an appreciation for Chicago, Jews, the UofC, and America--all things I do like. But really, very good essay.

Beautiful tribute, Phoebe.
One question--did Bellow ever write for the Maroon?
