The Quest for Redemption - Rares Piloiu - Bog

Fills an important gap in Roth scholarship, placing Roth's major works of fiction in the context of a generational interest in religious redemption among the Jewish intellectuals of Central Europe. Piloiu argues that Roth's literary output is the result of an attempt to recast moral, political, and historical realities of an empirically observable world in a new, religiously transfigured reality.
