Reading the author alongside a number of his contemporaries, and focusing particularly on his later fiction, this book offers a highly accessible, informative and persuasive view of Roth as an intellectually adventurous and stylistically brilliant writer who constantly reinvents himself in surprising ways. At the heart of this book are a number of detailed and nuanced readings of Roth's works both in terms of their relationships with each other and with fiction by Nathaniel Hawthorne, Thomas Pynch 410 0$aContemporary American & Canadian Writers 606 $aAmerican fiction$y20th century$xHistory and criticism 606 $aLiterature$2mup 606 $aLiterature: History & Criticism$2bicssc 606 $aLITERARY CRITICISM / Jewish$2bisach 606 $aLiterature: history & criticism$2thema 610 $aAmerican novelist. 610 $aBret Easton Ellis. 610 $aHoward Jacobson. 610 $aNathaniel Hawthorne. 610 $aPhilip Roth. 610 $aStanley Elkin. 610 $aThomas Pynchon. 610 $aTim O'Brien. 610 $aparadox. 610 $arhetorical device. 615 0$aAmerican fiction$xHistory and criticism. 615 7$aLiterature 615 7$aLiterature: History & Criticism 615 7$aLITERARY CRITICISM / Jewish 615 7$aLiterature: history & criticism 676 $a813.54 700 $aBrauner$b David$f1968-$01178452 801 2$bUkMaJRU 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910791951903321 996 $aPhilip Roth$93694672 997 $aUNINA
