Lezioni di letturaPastorale americana. Philip RothOggi i romanzi sono più asciutti, vanno dritti al punto raccontando traumi, facendo nomi e cognomi, saltando ogni preambolo.

Questa puntata è dedicata a come si scrivono i tempi morti, che forse non lo sono, e a uno dei suoi maestri: Philip Roth.

Ear Read ThisThe Breast (1972) by Philip RothS2E14 Continuing our exploration of literary metamorphoses, this week we look at David Alan Kepesh, a literature professor inexplicably transformed into a woman's breast in this 1972 novella by Philip Roth. Unlike Gregor Samsa, Kepesh is aware of the literary heritage of metamorphoses, making this transformation painfully self-conscious. Is the novel a sly dig at Roth's critics? Is the work, as Martin Amis believes, "comic in shape but only glancingly comic in execution"? Listen in to find out.
