| I thought it was in Carver’s Tevye’s conversations with his God that the difference was really remarkable. Often you see Tevye’s asides played for laughs, with a wink and a nudge. Carver still found the humour, but the way he engaged with God was earnest, sincere, challenging, and reverent. As portenopete said, he rarely raised his voice, but he held you in the palm of his hand. He made you lean in and listen. It was remarkable. |
