Philip Roth
Often picked by critics as the best American novelist of the past fifty years, Philip Roth writes personal reflections on the experience of being a Jew in America as well as satiric looks at history and sexual longings. His first book, Goodbye, Columbus, won the National Book Award in 1960 and later became an influential movie. His 1969 novel, Portnoy¡¯s Complaint, won critical praise while triggering a storm of controversy with its candid and raw descriptions of adolescent lust and adult sexuality. It was banned for
many years in some towns. Roth often adopts a character as an alter ego and has him reappear in several novels. For example, Nathan Zuckerman is the protagonist of five novels from 1979 to 1986 and again in three more in 1997 to 2000.
