The author writes: The two long pieces in this book originally came
out in The New Yorker ? RAISE HIGH THE ROOF BEAM, CARPENTERS in
1955, SEYMOUR ? An Introduction in 1959. Whatever their differences
in mood or effect, they are both very much concerned with Seymour
Glass, who is the main character in my still-uncompleted series
about the Glass family. It struck me that they had better be
collected together, if not deliberately paired off, in something of
a hurry, if I mean them to avoid unduly or undesirably close
contact with new material in the series. There is only my word for
it, granted, but I have several new Glass stories coming along ?
waxing, dilating ? each in its own way, but I suspect the less said
about them, in mixed company, the better. Oddly, the joys and
satisfactions of working on the Glass family peculiarly increase
and deepen for me with the years. I can't say why, though. Not, at
least, outside the casino proper of my fiction.
