In The Woman Downstairs, eloquence joins intimately with an attentive and hungry eye. With a passionate distance, Bruck blends the outside observer’s cool embrace with a desire to know intensely life’s eccentric smallnesses, to gentle the beautiful out of the mundane. By turns witty and thoughtful, Bruck’s writing is always graceful, always a delight.
