The Prague Orgy

Autor Philip Roth
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 5 oct 1995
Nathan Zuckerman is visiting Prague, where intellectuals come searching for Kafta, where misfits who don't submit decently to their misfortunes act out a comedy of manners in decadence.

Recenzii

"Obscenely outrageous and yet brilliantly reflective of a paranoid reality that has become universal. It is the best of Roth, a kind of coda to all his fiction so far" -- Harold Bloom New York Times Book Review "This fitting capstone to Roth's Zuckerman trilogy proves that no one now writing can be funnier and more passionately serious than Philip Roth" The Times "Scabrous, gutsy and scathing" The Times "A black fable about the lies and fictions which are the life blood of both politics and literature" Sunday Times
