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).
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.

評分好幾個猶太人朋友給我推薦的書,說保證捧腹大笑,笑不齣來可以找他們退貨。看瞭以後果然讓人又心酸又好笑。與其說這是猶太移民特有的問題,不如說是美國所有移民共同的經曆,diaspora的經曆。而經久不衰,大約是因為胸中有拯救人類的理想,而又難以忘記乳房和大腿的人太多,隨之而生的愧疚感真是讓人捧腹又糾結。
評分讀完確信尚且沒有懂Philip Roth的點 再開一本好瞭 最後甩的punchline倒還真是有點優秀哈哈!
評分brilliant
評分Portnoy的吐槽,關於父母的吐槽,一切邪惡都緣起爹媽。不知這對爹媽是否是典型的猶太父母,如果是的話,那猶太父母跟中國父母也太像瞭吧!一個33歲的猶太青年,法學院畢業生,紐約公務員,卻不婚不育自幼性成癮。他自己也在過往中追溯原因,那一定是原生傢庭的鍋,因為自從弗洛伊德學說發揚光大之後,原生傢庭就成瞭背鍋的擎天柱。他拒絕成為猶太傳統繼承人,拒絕對父母耳提麵命,拒絕按照父母培養的方嚮成長(唯一例外的是尖子生繼而青年纔俊),然後踏上瞭性成癮的不歸路。性是社會父母期許之外的唯一選項?還有關於故事結尾時,跑去以色列後發生的故事是什麼隱喻?
