Steven J. Zipperstein on Philip Roth's Brilliance & Battles
Update: 2025-11-12
Description
In the current issue of JRB, we ran an excellent review from David Mikics about Steven J. Zipperstein’s new biography of Philip Roth. Zipperstein’s book does what might seem impossible by now: it breaks new ground on the life and work of Philip Roth. Abe Socher had the opportunity to talk to Zipperstein last week at the Lehrhaus Tavern in Boston about Roth’s anger, his scandals, and secrets in old storage boxes.
