"Asa Leventhal ... is accosted in a park near his home by a down-at-the-heels stranger who accuses him of ruining his life ... Leventhal gradually succumbs to the man's story and comes to believe that he has, in fact, caused the man irreparable damage ... [he] descends into a nightmare of paranoia and fear"--P. [4] of cover.

Definitely a novel of thoughts; read it some time back in my course. But even though the haziness with which I remember the central plot and its offshoots clouds my perception about the work, I would say Bellow's themes beautifully reflect that which we call ‘the modern' human being.
A need to resolve for a re-read. Sure.
