The Human Stain


TitleThe Human Stain
Author Philip Roth
Call Number PS3568.O855 H8 2001
Location 2nd Floor Humanities
Rating Not Recommended
Book Review This is certainly modern literature, and every once in a while it's easy to get lost in Roth's (extremely tortuous and verbose) sentences, if you keep reading long enough you get back to the pretty gross way he writes about women. I also think the story, which was problematic to begin with, has not aged well into the current decade.
