| Abstract: | As early as 1972, while in Prague, Roth “encounters” (creates) a vivid, intelligent, highly reflective writer character (Nathan Zuckerman) and, as a result, he undertakes to write a new project of linked novels featuring this character and having an overarching meaning. Of course, the initial plan suffered a multitude of alterations in the 28 years it took to be delivered completely, the initiation of the series as well as its continuation stemming from Roth’s propensity for writing sequels. However, there is a clear wholeness and neatness in the design of each of the books which make up this series. |
