具体描述
No matter how much you know, no matter how much you think, no matter how much you plot and you connive and you plan, you’re not superior to sex. With these words our most unflaggingly energetic and morally serious novelist launches perhaps his fiercest book. The speaker is David Kepesh, white-haired and over sixty, an eminent cultural critic and star lecturer at a New York college–as well as an articulate propagandist of the sexual revolution. For years he has made a practice of sleeping with adventurous female students while maintaining an aesthete’s critical distance. But now that distance has been annihilated.
The agency of Kepesh’s undoing is Consuela Castillo, the decorous and humblingly beautiful 24-year-old daughter of Cuban exiles. When he becomes involved with her, Kepesh finds himself dragged–helplessly, bitterly, furiously–into the quagmire of sexual jealousy and loss. In chronicling this descent, Philip Roth performs a breathtaking set of variations on the themes of eros and mortality, license and repression, selfishness and sacrifice. The Dying Animal is a burning coal of a book, filled with intellectual heat and not a little danger.

读后感
从前言开始吧，小时候喜欢小说很多，后来，但凡是有字的东西都非得想法设法去看。别人的读后也罢，前言也好，代序都好，总之，我真是喜欢书的。 如果阅读主要是作为谈资。。。我想，我无法避免这样的莫名骄傲感，总是话唠和爱掉书袋的自己，这是我值得小自傲的极少数时刻。 “...

评分故事的作者是一个年过七旬的教授，而作为读者的我，刚好是年轻的上过大学的女生。看着这个老男人以他的角度、他的感受来讲述这个也许是真实的故事，刚开始多少有点恶心（原谅我的思想跟康秀拉一样古板），慢慢的（作为现阶段我只是看到的感情问题），发觉这个老男人很可怜...
评分苏轼《与王庠》写道：“书富如入海，百货皆有之，人之精力，不能兼收尽取，但得其所欲求者。” 读菲利普•罗斯《垂死的肉身》，找到一个很好的比喻：“她就像新孵出的雏鸟，圆圆的前额上还粘着蛋壳碎片也不奇怪。”除了这个比喻之外，值得“一意求之”的是教授大卫•凯...
