has a strong Jewish in-
fluence," he says.
Like other Jewish novelists
and humorists of his genera-
tion — Philip Roth, Joseph
Heller and Woody Allen —
Richler has been attacked for
the coarseness of his Jewish
characters, for the
boorishness of the parents in
his novels and the confused
identities and less-than-
exemplary behavior of the
children.
The criticism, he believes,
was only aimed directly at the
mark once.
"The most touching thing
said to me was, 'If you'd only
written in Yiddish, we
wouldn't mind,' meaning, he
says, that it's not the
characters that are the pro-
blem, but how they'll be
received by the non-Jewish
world.
"The Jewish community
just doesn't like being criticiz-
ed," he says. ❑

The National Conference of
Synagogue Youth announces
that Rachel Paholak and
Sidney Katz are the new
Junior NCSY advisers for the
Detroit area. Junior NCSY is
a regional program geared
toward meeting the needs of
fifth through eighth graders.
The program involves a
blend of hands-on educational
programming designed to be
both recreational and infor-
mative. The first Junior
NCSY event of the year will
take place on Sunday at 9:45
a.m., meeting at Young Israel

At the Plaster Playhouse
the Junior NCSY'ers will
have the opportunity to
design and make individual
plaster figures which they
will be able to take home
after the program. There will
be a competition to determine
the most creative figure, the
winner of which will receive
a free lunch at the West
Bloomfield Jewish Communi-
ty Center immediately after
the program. For information,
contact Paholak, 559-2127; or
Katz, 552-0078.
