📣”A deep, wise, funny and moving novel about old age, memory, biography, and our relationship with the dead, which, within its witty and stylish story, expresses a profound belief in the transcendental value of the here and now, the life we have.”
—Dame Hermione Lee

📣"A tour de force of voice."
—Rosanna Warren

📣“One of the most original and nuanced novels I’ve read in a long time. . . . [F]orceful and undulant, it takes on quintessential themes of creativity, originality, mortality, success, failure, and the private secrets that dog public lives.”
—Daphne Merkin

📣"A dazzling novel that contains multitudes. . . . I gasped when I got to the end and started reading all over again for the sheer pleasure of it."
—Will Schwalbe

TEN CLEAR DAYS by Eric Beck Rubin, reviewed in The Globe and Mail by Sarmishta Subramanian:

“It seems right that the title of Eric Beck Rubin’s extraordinary novel is drawn from a piece of legislation, an orphan poetic phrase hiding in a hulking legal text – beauty where there should be none. . . .

[T]he woman dubbed M.B. or simply ‘Patient’ throughout the book is Mary Beck, the author’s grandmother. . . . Marianne Manoville (her original name) survives [the Holocaust] physically through courage or desperation, and spiritually through beauty. . . .

The book devastates with its restraint, the story unspooling through a series of stills: picture hangers filling the walls of a Budapest apartment with paintings; people floating down the Danube one frigid day in 1944. . . .

Why does a woman who pursued life against great odds now choose death? Her family is stricken; one daughter rails against her mother’s wish. A doctor friend says she won’t go through with it; she’s a survivor. . . . Perhaps all we can know is that Mary Beck, a woman who exerted enormous will to shape her own story, chose to apply the same to its end.”
