Sobre IBD

York in Chains is a fascinating story about a historical character whose life has rarely been told-and never in such a unique and creative way. Handelman is a skilled storyteller and his descriptions in many places are staggeringly vivid. This novel was so compelling I looked forward every morning to diving in again.  -Louella Bryant is the author most recently of Sheltering Angel, A Novel Based on a True Story of the Titanic.

Many of Handelman’s characterizations are so sharply sketched and offbeat and vivid that these people seem to stroll across the page, and we never forget them.   --Adrian Van Young author of The Man Who ...

    ALVIN HANDELMAN’S LATEST NOVEL, The Case Record, is full of smart, wonderful material. Handelman has created a touchingly naïve character in Sam Peters, a newbie Caseworker at the Bushwick, Brooklyn, Department of Welfare. In addition to its fraught love story, the novel does the brave, important thing of homing in on white privilege. Though Sam Peters is Jewish, he still suffe...

Reminds me of the work of Philip Roth and Tom Robbins. That same brand of humor and intelligence, and a thread of barely bridled mania.' -TJ Beitelman, author of 'C...
