For awhile, I was starting to wonder if Michael and Julia might actually hit the sheets. (Alas, they don't. Julia won't commit adultery, and apparently angels can't actually get carnal, even though Michael is clearly a great kisser.)
This sounds fascinating. I saw the film decades ago and my parents have the novel in the house (my grandparents had a lot of Robert Nathan), but I can't ever remember reading it. I will check it out the next time I am at my parents'. Do you have a fix-it for the ending?
(Side note: he was also the husband of Anna Lee, of Val Lewton and General Hospital fame!)
I knew about his Jewishness, but I had no idea about Anna Lee!
