This is a groundbreaking study of the most important contemporary
American novelist, Philip Roth. 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 Pynchon, Tim O'Brien, Brett Easton Ellis, Stanley
Elkin, Howard Jacobson and Jonathan Safran Foer. Brauner identifies
as a thread running through all of Roth's work the use of paradox,
both as a rhetorical device and as an organising intellectual and
ideological principle. -- .
