What can we see if we look under the covers? Only the stifling darkness. But looking inside someone's heart, we can see the whole world and ourselves in it. Ezra Buskis's new book "At the Edge of the Nigh" allows us to peer inside our hearts and reaffirm the truth that the meaning of life is love. We see before us a writer's unique Love Song. This love is not always triumphant, but it is always great and pure. The images, characters, and faces of the heroines change. And with their alteration, merging, and union, the image of a single one is created. Not just the beloved, but an immense, infinite Love. The novel takes us through many countries, cities, and even narrators. Sometimes it is told by the author, sometimes by his beloved. And the essence becomes deeper, as if it is displayed from the inside and from all angles through the tales, views, and assessments of people who are not very alike. The novel is filled with dialogue. This makes it dynamic, makes the characters come to life as people we can understand, and brings them closer to us... However, they do not always understand their beloved. Such is life. We learn to sympathise, to feel, to fathom the soul of those close to us. It takes a lifetime. And no matter how much people err, no matter how much they stray from the path in the darkness, at the edge of the night they will always find the tiny flame of love. Love is immortal. It is our most important guide. PS. "And lastly... I am very glad that you and I had this 'Odessa affair."
