description: This study concentrates on the development as a novelist of the American writer Philip Roth from realistic approaches, to the experimental writing of Deception and his latest work, Operation Shylock. The book sets out to relate Roth's work to American Jewish literary traditions and styles, traces some sources and influences on his work from Dostoievski to Kafka, and attempts an assessment of where his work stands in terms of quality and subject-matter in the current American literary scene.
