About Desert Requiem
Desert Requiem, Act 3 of Harold and Enid’s Palm Springs’ Opera, takes up their story three years on from the end Desert Swing and Desert Blues. Harold Abelstein has arrived at UC Berkeley and finds himself out of his depth both with the academic demands and the group of smart-assed Jews with whom he is forced to live. Things begin to spiral out of control when he stumbles into simultaneous affairs with two girls and then hooks up with Koster Fivel, a street-smart operator who introduces Harold to what proves to be a poker game with dangerous consequences.Back in Palm Springs, his Aunt Enid has had to move from her comfortable house and pool into a cramped, rundown place that adamantly refuses to keep out the desert. She is working as a salesgirl in a fancy dress shop, where her customers are the same women she knew in her previous, more affluent life. Both house and job are making her miserable, as his her spluttering relationship with Big Earl.————————Praise for Desert BluesSwinging from poignant drama to edgy satire to farce, Albert’s moving and funny first novel pairs an awkward orphaned adolescent immersed in 1950s rock ‘n’ roll and an unconventional “kept” woman….With a fine ear for dialogue, Albert perfectly captures a time and place-and the emotional chafing between family members who can’t help but care for one another, despite themselves. (stared review, Publishers Weekly, October 10, 1994)Desert Blues has its full share of hilarious, and touching, moments. Albert skilfully cap!tures the small western town ambience of the celebrity winter resort sweltering through the dog days of summer. (Booklist, 12 1 94)Bill Albert has a keen and witty grasp of just how woeful and melancholy life can be. His brilliant insights are offered here with astute warm-heartedness, tempered by a lively and spirited hold on the intricacies and knottiness of the human plight, including the presence of genteel anti-Semitism. (Excerpt from Jewish Journal, June 1, 1995)
