Along with Saul Bellow's Herzog, Philip Roth's Portnoy's Complaint defined Jewish American literature in the 1960s. Roth's masterpiece takes place on the couch of a psychoanalyst, an appropriate jumping-off place for an insanely comical novel about the Jewish American experience. Roth has written several great books--Goodbye, Columbus and When She Was Good among them, but it is perhaps Portnoy's Complaint for which he is best known.
Philip Milton Roth (born March 19, 1933, Newark, New Jersey[1]) is an American novelist. He gained early literary fame with the 1959 collection Goodbye, Columbus (winner of 1960's National Book Award), cemented it with his 1969 bestseller Portnoy's Complaint, and has continued to write critically-acclaimed works, many of which feature his fictional alter ego, Nathan Zuckerman. The Zuckerman novels began with The Ghost Writer in 1979, and include the Pulitzer Prize-winning American Pastoral (1997).

评分Hahahaha this is sooo Jewish. ps 关于主人公母亲的健康饮食强迫症,联想到Alessandro Gassman(n)说他家也这样,所以他们每天在自己家吃完就去隔壁Tognazzi家接着吃。——论犹太人聚居的必要性。
评分I am most impressed with two themes of this novel: the sense of being an outsider as a Jew in the American society, and Portnoy's reluctance to settle down with a woman, or rather, his fantasy of having sex with as many women as possible. I had took it for granted that Jews are part of the American mainstream, and to read about how they struggled..
评分看得我都高潮了
