Philip Roth is known for giving very few interviews. For eight days he hosted William Karel in New York and Connecticut. The result is twelve hours of interviews during which Philip Roth opens up as never before—like someone who no longer has anyone or anything to fear. Roth is a special case in a literary world full of special cases. They said he was finished, washed up. He is livelier than ever. The extraordinary vitality of the last American literary giant is charming and extremely funny.
