Review: MY HERO: PHILIP ROTH
2013
Overview
Did anyone believe Philip Roth when, earlier this year, he announced that he was retiring from writing? Of all contemporary novelists, he is the one who has made writing seem a necessary and continuous act, inextricable from the continuities and struggles of being alive. For Roth, narration and self seem to have been born together; and, therefore, must die together, too. More than any other modern novelist, he has used fiction as confession and the displacement of confession: his ranters, complainers and alter egos, from Portnoy to [Nathan Zuckerman] to Mickey Sabbath all seem Rothian, even when they are only standing in for Roth.
