Philip Roth was much more than a Jewish writer from Newark, as this new biography reveals.
His life encompassed writing some of the most original novels in American literature, publishing censored writers from Eastern Europe, surviving less than satisfactory marriages, and developing friendshipswith a number of the most important writers of his time from Primo Levi and Milan Kundera to Isaac Bashevis Singer, Saul Bellow and Edna OBrien.
The winner of a Pulitzer Prize, National Book Award, and the Man Booker International Prize, Roth maintained a remarkable productivity throughout a careerthat spanned almost fifty years, creating 31 works.
But beneath the success was illness, angst, and anxiety often masked from his readers.
This biography, drawing on archives, interviews and his books, delves into the shaded world of Philip Roth to identify the ghosts, the character, and evenidentity of the man.
