This zany, sexy version of the story of King David, told as a modern allegory of what it is like for a Jew to survive in a hostile world, is "original, sad, wildly funny, and filled with roaring. . . . Heller's King David, a splendid creation, is not so much a man for all seasons as man in all his seasons" ("The New York Times Book Review").

God Knows expresses King David's anger with God. David tells his story in bits and pieces, seguing from one event to another. It's a love story, told by a man angry with God over the loss of his son. It is bittersweet, and absolutely hilarious. Best of all, it is a novel worth reading just for the last sentence. (Don't peek! You'll lose the effect.)
