Must Read
Ozick is a brilliant writer & Foreign Bodies is a "must read" for book clubs.

Plot? What plot?
I found this book virtually unreadable - and wondered what it was about with each turn of the page. It didn't get better, and my question (what is the plot?) was never answered. If this is an example of Cynthia Ozick's writing I will be reading no further.
I'm trying to find book club discussion questions, but they are as elusive as the plot of Foreign Bodies.
