| Abstract: | Philip Roth has famously explored, exposed and exploited every period of his life for fictional purposes. This raises in the minds of critics and readers alike more or less inclined towards biographical interpretation a number of questions related to reliability, technique, Roth’s stance and the extent to which (auto-)biographical details source the text. This paper looks at these queries, particularly with regard to the Zuckerman series of books. |
