STONES is a novel simultaneously serious and comic. It takes place
in one day as its protagonist, Jack Berke, accompanies his aged
mother Rachel to visit the family graves in Brooklyn, Queens, and
further out on Long Island. As Jack negotiates the congested
expressways from cemetery to cemetery, he contemplates the
tombstones, the lives of family members who lie under them, the
stones that, according to Jewish custom, he places on those
tombstones, and the stone that has for a lifetime resided in his
own heart.
