My Life as a Man
of Philip Roth
Series: Complete Nathan Zuckerman #0
Description
At its heart lies the marriage of Peter and Maureen Tarnopol, a gifted young writer and the woman who wants to be his muse but who instead is his nemesis. Their union is based on fraud and shored up by moral blackmail, but it is so perversely durable that, long after Maureenâs death, Peter is still tryingâand failingâto write his way free of it.Out of desperate inventions and cauterizing truths, acts of weakness, tenderheartedness, and shocking cruelty, Philip Roth creates a work worthy of Strindbergâa fierce tragedy of sexual need and blindness.
