Publisher Description
Philip Roth is the most decorated American writer of his generation. He has won two National Book Awards, two National Book Critics Circle Awards, three PEN/Faulkner Awards, and the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction. Now in Exit Ghost, this masterful writer crafts what may be the final chapter in the story of his beloved hero Nathan Zuckerman.
After 11 years of isolation in his New England mountain refuge, Zuckerman returns to New York City and makes three important connections. The first is to a young couple with whom he suggests swapping homes. The second is to Amy, the former muse of Zuckerman’s first literary hero, E.I. Lonoff. And the third is to a bold, ambitious Lonoff biographer who is irritatingly persistent. It seems Zuckerman’s carefully protected sense of isolation is bound to be shattered.
