Lovedوبشكل عام، قرأت مؤخراً رواية "كل إنسان" لفيليب روث، وهي واحدة من رواياته المتأخرة. وطوال مسيرته المهنية، ربما يكون فيليب روث أحد أفضل الساردين في التاريخ.
Everyman (2006)
Creators: Loved "The fate of Roth's everyman is traced from his first shocking confrontation with death on the idyllic beaches of his childhood summers, through the family trials and professional achievements of his vigorous adulthood, and into his old age, when he is rended by observing the deterioration of his contemporaries and stalked by his own physical woes." "A successful commercial artist with a New York ad agency, he is the father of two sons from a first marriage who despise him and a daughter from a second marriage who adores him. He is the beloved brother of a good man whose physical well-being comes to arouse his bitter envy, and he is the lonely ex-husband of three very different women with hom he's made a mess of marriage. In the end he is a man who has become what he does not want to be."--Jacket.
