"The Book of Getting Even": Young man's tale fascinates, until he graduates
"The Book of Getting Even"
by Benjamin Taylor
Steerforth, 166 pp., $23.95
Benjamin Taylor's "The Book of Getting Even" is elegant and beautifully evoked, right down to the pediatrician — "the worst, the noisiest Nixon-lover in town" — who appears only in a couple of paragraphs. Set in the 1970s, "Book" follows brilliant, odd Gabriel Geismar, a kid with — literally — two left thumbs and a passion for mathematics, as he leaves his home in the South and heads for college in Philadelphia.
Gabriel is a rabbi's son who grows up in a New Orleans household ruled by his handsome, tyrannical father, who saves all his charm for strangers. At home, his tirades are awful but also funny and cartoonish. "He'd carry on in third person, like a sports hero or gangster: 'Tell a lie to Milton Geismar? You'll wish you hadn't!' "
On Gabriel's last night before leaving for college, he determinedly loses his virginity in a dim cubicle at a gay bathhouse, with eager Clarence Rappley, cold-heartedly described as a "king-sized cracker." After their brief encounter, Gabriel stills his racing mind with a foray into mathematics: "His mind veered to numbers, clean things, the cleanest indeed anywhere in or out of the world." It is a theme — the lifelong duel between mind and body — that resonates through the novel.
At Swarthmore College in Philadelphia, Gabriel meets the eccentric, irresistible brother-sister twins, Marghie and Daniel Hundert, who both fall in love with him. This strange, powerful triangle offers him everything he lacks: Danny and Marghie's parents are literate, worldly, opera-loving Hungarian émigrés — everything Gabriel's family isn't. Their father, to Gabriel's amazement, is a Nobel laureate. Gabriel quickly incorporates himself into the family.
This section, charting Gabriel's growing intoxication with the Hunderts, is the best in the book. The time and place are captured with aching perfection. But as the story moves on — Taylor divides it into sections taking place several years apart — it begins to come off the rails, largely because of Danny's disappearance from center stage.
An effortlessly charming college kid when we first meet him, Danny abruptly becomes an angry political activist — a transformation in tune with the times, but not one that's ever satisfactorily explained or explored. Like all 1970s activists worth their salt, Danny has a manifesto — his is the titular "Book of Getting Even." Unfortunately, it's unpersuasive, like the post-college sections of the novel. And while Taylor's story ultimately doesn't completely satisfy, his considerable gifts as a writer make it worthwhile.

Strong emotions follow Vancouver screening of oAir India 182"
VANCOUVER - Some still want answers. Others just want to move on.
There were strong and conflicting emotions by family members and people affected by the Air India Flight 182 bombing following the screening Saturday of a documentary that recounts the events leading up to the biggest terrorist attack in Canadian history.
"Air India 182," directed by Sturla Gunnarsson, tells the story of what happened on June 23, 1985, when a bomb exploded on the plane off the coast of Ireland, killing all 329 people onboard.
The documentary is based on factual information from court transcripts and wiretaps and includes re-enactments and intimate interviews.
Family members recount waving one last time to their loved ones who were about to board the plane. The woman airline clerk who checked in the luggage that was carrying the bomb admits that scene frequently replays in her memory in slow motion.
After the Vancouver screening on Saturday, many people who had lost family members in the bombing praised Gunnarsson for vividly showing the pain they've experienced for the last 23 years.
However, during a question and answer session following the film, one audience member asked why the filmmakers didn't do more investigative reporting since what was screened in the film was information that was already known.
"We never saw this as an investigative film, as journalism," said Gunnarsson, who was raised in B.C.
"We felt this is one of the major moments in modern Canadian history and it's never really been embraced as a part of Canadian history."
He said the film was also a way to give the victims in the attack "a voice and a name."
"Because death through terrorism is meaningless."
Another family member in the audience spoke up during the session, saying that after 23 years, it was time for people to move forward.
But for some who have ties to the historic event, that has been incredibly hard.
Liberal MP Ujjal Dosanjh, who testified at the Air India inquiry and was in attendance at Saturday's screening, said some people are still trying to intimidate him for being critical of extremists.
The World Sikh Organization named Dosanjh in a multi-million dollar lawsuit against CBC regarding a documentary that featured an interview with him.
The lawsuit alleges the CBC documentary "Samosa Politics" by reporter Terry Milewski likened the Sikh separatist movement to terrorism and defamed members of Canada's Sikh community.
Some journalists who were at the screening and have closely followed the Air India trial said that they had also faced death threats and lawsuits.
Renee Saklikar lost her aunt and uncle in the bombing and was interviewed for the documentary, which she described as a skilled, multi-layered film that captures a major part of Canadian history.
"(The film) hopefully brings it home that sadly it's still an on-going story, it's not a closed story" she said.
"We do need to move on and we do move on...but it is psychologically implausible to just erase it."
"Air India 182" will air on CBC on June 22.
