The Facts is a rigorously unfictionalized narrative that portrays Philip Roth unadorned—as young artist, as student, as son, as lover, as husband, as American, as Jew—and candidly examines how close the novels have been to, and how far from, autobiography.
From his childhood in Newark, New Jersey, to his explosive success as a novelist, to his critics in the Jewish community who attacked his writing, and the divorce and death of his first wife, The Facts is a playful and harrowingly unconventional autobiography, bookended by letters written by his fictional alter-ego Nathan Zuckerman.
"The Facts is a lively and serious version of a novelist's life." —New York Review of Books
