21. The Human Stain A review of the novel by philip roth in goodreports.net. http://www.goodreports.net/humrot.htm

THE HUMAN STAIN By Philip Roth American writers have a thing for trying to express the spirit of the age in fiction. The first three decades of the century were anatomized in the U.S.A. trilogy by John Dos Passos. John Updike took Rabbit Angstrom through four books looking at four decades of American life, starting with the 1950s. More recently, Tom Wolfe has been credited with writing the great satire of the 80s in The Bonfire of the Vanities , but was less successful when he tried to do the same for the 90s with A Man in Full In his now complete Zuckerman trilogy, Philip Roth has taken the role of chronicler to another level. In the previous two novels, American Pastoral and I Married a Communist , he examined the relationship between public and private American life in the 50s and 60s. In his latest, The Human Stain , he brings us up to date with a hard look at the moral and political environment of the 1990s. In the 90s America sat back and enjoyed a prosperity free of social upheaval. There was no McCarthy witch-hunt, no Vietnam, no civil rights movement, no counter-culture, and no economic crisis. There was also, let it be put in the balance, very little art. It wasn't a great time for art. It was, instead, a time for entertainments and diversions. It was a time when the tabloid tale of the Clinton sex scandals (a news story that forms the historical background for

22. I Married A Communist Review of the novel by philip roth in goodreports.net. http://www.goodreports.net/imarot.htm

I MARRIED A COMMUNIST By Philip Roth Is Philp Roth America's best living novelist? For the past 40 years there has been good reason to think so. And the miracle is, he seems to be getting better. His latest work continues what has, throughout the '90s, been a remarkable streak. The communist of the title is Ira Ringold, a poor Jewish boy from Newark who becomes a party member while serving overseas in World War Two. Back in America he goes from factory job to celebrity radio personality, adopting the name of "Iron Rinn". Propelled into an alien social class, he marries - disastrously - a former movie star with an odious grown-up daughter. McCarthyism follows hard on the heels of domestic breakdown and he is, inevitably, destroyed. If that sounds like the same kind of rise-and-fall story as last year's American Pastoral , that's because it is. The two books are really companion volumes. Both are narrated by Roth's alter ego Nathan Zuckerman, and both describe the domestic tragedies of American dreamers "impaled on their moment" and caught "in the traps set for them by their era." Just as Swede Levov is wrecked by the '60s in American Pastoral , so Ira is ruined by the '50s in this book.

Mittlerweile auch nicht mehr der Jüngste, trifft er durch seine Lehrveranstaltungen immer noch auf genügend hinreißende junge Frauen, die sich durch seine Prominenz - aber natürlich auch seine Intelligenz beeindrucken lassen und mit ihm eine lose Beziehung eingehen. Eine feste wünscht er ohnehin nicht mehr. Schließlich hat er bereits eine Scheidung hinter sich, hat einen Sohn, der die Trennung bis heute, da er selbst verheiratet ist und Kinder hat, nicht wirklich verkraftet hat - nein, das ist es wirklich nicht, was David vorschwebt.

His first came in 1994 for "Operation Shylock" WASHINGTON For the second time in Philip Roth's prestigious career as a novelist, he has won the coveted PEN/Faulkner award for fiction. Roth's peers picked his 2000 work "The Human Stain" (Houghton Mifflin) to receive the award and its $15,000 cash prize, it was announced Monday. The award will be presented May 12 at the Folger Shakespeare Library. Roth, 68, also won the award in 1994 for "Operation Shylock." He is the second author to win two PEN/Faulkner honors. John Edgar Wideman took home the honor in 1984 for "Sent for You Yesterday," and in 1991 for "Philadelphia Fire." "The Human Stain," billed as a political parable, paints the picture of an academic career assassination. Set in 1998 at Athena College and told in the voice of Roth's alter ego Nathan Zuckerman, the story follows a faculty dean who is slapped with bogus racism charges and is forced into retirement.

Nun waren diese beiden Studenten schwarz; ein Umstand, von dem er nichts ahnen konnte, da er sie doch noch niemals gesehen hatte.

40. Philip Roth http://www.epdlp.com/proth.html

Philip Roth E scritor estadounidense representante de la "escuela judía" de la novela norteamericana. Nació en Newark (Nueva Jersey), y estudió en las universidades de Rutgers, Bucknell y Chicago. Enseñó inglés en las universidades de Chicago y de Iowa. Por su primera obra, Adiós, Colón (1959), un libro de relatos sobre la vida de los judíos en Estados Unidos, ganó en 1960 el National Book Award (Premio Nacional del Libro). El relato que da título al libro fue llevado al cine en 1969. Su primera novela, Huida (1962), relata la agonía de un joven catedrático judío que se debate entre la razón y los sentimientos. La novela Cuando ella era buena (1967) se desarrolla en un entorno ajeno a lo judío. La queja de Portnoy (1969), libro muy leído y controvertido que está escrito en forma de autobiografía, relata la vida sexual de Alexander Portnoy a través de su monólogo desde el diván de su psiquiatra. Las novelas El pecho (1972) y La gran novela americana (1974), esta última sobre el deporte del béisbol, suponen un cambio hacia la literatura fantástica, mientras que Mi vida como hombre (1975) señala una vuelta a temas más introspectivos.
