Raanan Geberers New York-based \u0026amp;quote;The Diner Under the El,\u0026amp;quote; however, shines the spotlight on people usually ignored in fiction. These are people who are somewhat shy, or dont have the type of outgoing self-confidence idealized by American society, and are often made to suffer for it. \u0026amp;quote;The Diner Under the El\u0026amp;quote; takes place from 1987 to 1991, and focuses on three young Jewish men in their mid-thirties from the Pelham Parkway neighborhood of the north Bronx, N.Y. Every week, they go to singles events, and afterward, they meet at the \u0026amp;quote;diner under the el\u0026amp;quote; to commiserate. Change inevitably comes to their lives. One loses himself in ultra-right-wing conspiracy theories and sadistic sexual fantasies; the second, a would-be rock musician, sees his paste-up job becoming rapidly obsolete; and the third finds salvation with an off-beat woman who introduces him to poetry, New Age mysticism and pop psychology, with hilarious results. Author Raanan Geberer describes \u0026amp;quote;The Diner Under the El\u0026amp;quote; as something like \u0026amp;quote;Seinfeld,\u0026amp;quote; but with a tragi-comic twist.
