In The Outside Chance ofMaximilian Glick, Morley Torgov returns in a contemporary vein to the setting of his bestselling A Good Place to Come From, that small, northern Ontario city where the social climate falls into the same category as the seasonal climate - an ongoing act of God best endured with a maximum of resignation and a minimum of talk. Onto this city of somé 50,000 descends one day a Lubavitcher rabbi, a member of an extremely Orthodox group who clothe themselves in the fashion of their Eastern European forefathers and wear their beards long and sideburns untrimmed.

In The Outside Chance ofMaximilian Glick, Morley Torgov returns in a contemporary vein to the setting of his bestselling A Good Place to Come From, that small, northern Ontario city where the social climate falls into the same category as the seasonal climate - an ongoing act of God best endured with a maximum of resignation and a minimum of talk. Onto this city of somé 50,000 descends one day a Lubavitcher rabbi, a member of an extremely Orthodox group who clothe themselves in the fashion of their Eastern European forefathers and wear their beards long and sideburns untrimmed. The Lubavitcher, through a clerical error, has just been appointed rabbi of the small Jewish community. Naturally, he captures the attention of the entire city as a seller of elixirs might have done in horse-and-buggy times. And to Maximilian Glick, about to become bar mitzvah, the rabbi personifies all the strictures of small-town provincialism he is longing to escape from. However, things aren't quite what they seem - for the young Lubavitcher would rather shed his rabbinicai garb to become a stand-up comedian---- These are just somé of the ingredients of this funny, affectionate, and wise tale which deals with that very special territory where the boundary between what we are and what we dream of becoming is almost invisible.
