Philip Roth - Portnoys Beschwerden Originaltitel: Portnoys Complaint Roman. Rowohlt Verlag 1969 315 Seiten, ISBN: 3499120747 Wie könnte man Alexander Portnoy besser beschreiben denn als Genie? Das ist es jedenfalls, was er von seinen Eltern schon von Kind auf zu hören bekommt. Ein Mensch mit seinem Verstand! seinen Gaben! seinen Anlagen! Und trotzdem: er macht seine Eltern nicht glücklich. Schon als Kind gab es neben den Lobeshymnen, mit denen er überhäuft wurde, auch die unzähligen Stunden, die er heulend vor der Tür verbrachte, weil seine Mutter ihn nie wieder sehen wollte. Weil er Verbrechen begangen hatte, deren Ausmaß ihm gar nicht klar war - Pommes auf der Straße gegessen! Keine Mütze aufgesetzt! Jeans getragen! Die Mutter nicht sehen lassen, was er in der Toillettenschüssel hinterlässt! Aber auch als Erwachsener wird er nicht aus der elterlichen Fürsorge entlassen - lass dich nur nicht mit einer Schickse ein, hörst du, Alexander? Fahr nie mit dem Kabrio! Warum hast du eigentlich noch keine Kinder? Warum bist du noch nicht verheiratet? Warum wohnst du eigentlich in New York? Und warum kommst du uns nie besuchen? Wo wir doch alles für dich getan haben, hörst du? Da hilft nur eines - die Flucht. Die Flucht in die Arme hübscher, blonder, langbeiniger Mädchen, die alles andere sind, aber garantiert keine braven jüdischen Mädchen. Denn mit jüdischen Mädchen, speziell in Israel, macht er keine guten Erfahrungen....

Philip Roth - Das sterbende Tier Originaltitel: The Dying Animal Roman. (englischsprachiger Verlag) 2001 156 Seiten, ISBN: 3499236508 David Kepesh hat sich in seinem Leben eingerichtet. 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. Auch das ganze Geschwätz, bevor man miteinander ins Bett ging, war für ihn verschwendete Zeit; zwar ist ihm klar, dass die Frauen ihm nur mitteilen wollten, wer sie eigentlich waren, was ihr Wesen ausmachte - doch was interessierte ihn das, wenn er sich doch über ihre Titten, ihren wundervollen Körper mit ihnen unterhalten wollte! Bis er auf Consuela trifft. Die junge Kubanerin lässt alles mit sich geschehen, genießt die Anbetung ihres Körpers - und bleibt doch seltsam unabhängig. Ihr wird er hörig, sie würde er am liebsten rund um die Uhr bewachen - und scheitert doch an der simplen Aufgabe, zur Feier ihres Studienabschlusses zu erscheinen.

Philip Roth - Der menschliche Makel Originaltitel: The Human Stain Roman. Hanser Literatur Verlag 2000 400 Seiten, ISBN: 3499231654 Coleman Silk; ein verbitterter Mann, 71 Jahre alt, der nur ein Thema zu kennen scheint: die ungerechte Behandlung, die ihm an seinem College zuteil geworden war. Zwei Worte, zwei kleine Worte von all den vielen die er im Laufe seiner langen Lehrtätigkeit geäußert hatte, waren ihm zum Verhängnis geworden; als "dunkle Gestalten, die das Seminarlicht scheuen" hatte er die beiden stets fehlenden Studenten bezeichnet, die in seinem Seminar eingeschrieben waren, aber niemals persönlich auftauchten. Nun waren diese beiden Studenten schwarz; ein Umstand, von dem er nichts ahnen konnte, da er sie doch noch niemals gesehen hatte. Der Wirbel, den die darauf folgende Rassismus-Anklage mit sich bringt, wird noch durch den Tod von Colemans Frau verstärkt. Aber eines Abends, als der Erzähler des Romans, der Schriftsteller, zu den üblichen Samstagabend-Drinks zu Coleman kommt, hat dieser mit seiner Anklage mehr oder weniger abgeschlossen. Zwei Jahre lang hatte er an seiner Abrechnung geschrieben, aber nun, da sie fertig ist, auch selbst erkannt: es ist Mist. Und er hat eine Frau kennen gelernt, mit der er ein Verhältnis hat, eine Frau, die aus einer völlig anderen Gesellschaftsschicht stammt, die nicht lesen kann, die nicht einmal halb so alt ist wie er selbst; und die ebenfalls ihr Päckchen an Tragödien (schlagender Exmann, 2 tote Kinder, ein fummelnder Stiefvater) mit sich trägt.

Mickey Sabbath ist 65, ein arbeitsloser, verkrüppelter Puppenspieler, dessen Leben sich nur um Sex dreht. "Im Gegensatz zu anderen Männern" so bezeichnet er es selbst, "die alles um Macht, Geld, Karriere etc. anordnen müssen, ordne ich alles rund ums Ficken an". Die Kroatin Drenka, seine sexuelle Erfüllung, mit der er all seine Perversionen ausleben konnte, ist gerade an Krebs gestorben. Seine Frau Roseanne ist, seit sie trocken ist, nur noch damit beschäftigt, inneren Frieden zu finden, und denkt daran, ihren Trennungsgedanken Taten folgen zu lassen. Entrüstet beschließt Sabbath, ihr zuvorzukommen - und fährt zur Beerdigung eines Freundes aus alten Tagen. Da sein Leben ohnehin nichts mehr wert ist, beschließt er, es zu beenden - sobald er noch dieses und jenes erledigt hat. Von der Frau seines alten Freundes rausgeworfen, klaut er ihr 10.000 Dollar - und ihre Nacktbilder, und macht sich auf an den Ort seiner Kindheit. Ein Grab kauft er dort, einen Grabstein, zahlt bereits für sein Begräbnis und will noch einmal die Straßen seiner Kindheit sehen - und findet im Haus seines Onkels die letzten Habseligkeiten seines im Krieg gefallenen Bruders, was seinen Entschluß entscheidend beeinflußt....

10. The Human Stain A review of the novel by Philip Roth in goodreports.net. http://www.goodreports.net/reviews/thehumanstain.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

Philip Roth first achieved fame with GOODBYE, COLUMBUS (1959). It consisted of a novella and five short stories and described the life of a of Jewish middle-class family. Ten years later appeared PORTNOY'S COMPLAINT. In this "masturbation story" the narrator searches for freedom by using sex as his way of escape. The book gained a great international success. "Between first discovering the Newark Bears and the Brooklyn Dodgers at seven or eight and first looking into Conrad's Lord Jim at age eighteen, I had done some growing up. I am only saying that my discovery of literature, and fiction particularly, and the 'love affair' - to some degree hopeless, but still earnest - that has ensued, derives in part from this childhood infatuation with baseball. Or, more accurately perhaps, baseball - with its lore and legends, its cultural power, its seasonal associations, its native authenticity, its simple rules and transparent strategies, its longueurs and thrills, its spaciousness, its suspensefulness, its heroics, its nuances, its lingo, its 'characters', its peculiarly hypnotic tedium, its mythic transformation of the immediate - was the literature of my boyhood."

13. I Married A Communist Review of the novel by Philip Roth in goodreports.net. http://www.goodreports.net/reviews/imarriedacommunist.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.

SUMMARY Four complete works by Philip Roth in one volume. The complete comic saga of Nathan Zuckerman, his ordeals of conscience, from Manhattan, to Miami Beach, to Czechoslovakia! "Roth has transcended himself . . . . A comic genius . . . Certainly Philip Roth's finest achievement to date, eclipsing even his best single fictions . . . ZUCKERMAN BOUND binds together THE GHOST WRITER, ZUCKERMAN UNBOUND, and THE ANATOMY LESSON, adding to them as epilogue a wild short novel, THE PRAGUE ORGY, which is at once the bleakest and the funniest writing Roth has done." The New York Times Book Review "ZUCKERMAN BOUND proves that no one now writing can be funnier and, at the same time, more passionately serious than Philip Roth." Time "ZUCKERMAN BOUND shows the author's always ebullient invention and artful prose at their most polished and concentrated." The New Yorker

Roth was best known for his outrageous fiction "Goodbye Columbus," winner of a National Book Award for fiction, and "Portnoy's Complaint," 1969. Roth and his older brother, Sandy, were the kids of Jewish Polish immigrants. Their dad, Herman, was an insurance man who spent the first part of his professional life pounding the pavements of Newark, NJ to get overdue three-cent premiums from clients. With only an eighth-grade education, his dad worked his way into management. He was an opinionated man who ruled the family with an iron fist while Philip's mom, Bessie was a gentle martyr to his dad's domestic tyranny. She died in 1981. After college Roth served in the Army. He was discharged in 1955 and then taught at the University of Chicago while writing "Goodbye, Columbus" which won a National Book Award for fiction and was made into a motion picture. In 1960 he won a Guggenheim grant and went to live in Italy and then England. During the span of his career he scandalized his fellow Jews with his voyeuristic rendering of conventional Jewish mating habits in "Goodbye, Columbus," then in 1969 with the lurid, uproarious and sexually graphic "Portnoy's Complaint." He received critical acclaim for other books but none sold as well as that outrageous best-seller.
