An astonishing writer who couldn't write a bad book.
But one is allowed to pick favorites, so here they go: Operation Shylock, I married a communist, and The plot against America.
- dannylandau 8y agoI've read only 3 1/2 of his books: Operation Shylock, Plot against America, Portnoys complaint: and part of American Pastoral -- which I had trouble getting through. I wonder if others found it too dense? Otherwise, the above 3 books are really great!
- HelloNurse 8y agoRead all of American Pastoral. After the sad and slightly less interesting middle section, the plot flares up right at the end, as a long prepared payoff.
- mhall12 8y agoSo much subtext in that book.
