Which one are you trading? QQQ or TQQQ? Or both? 60 and 70, huh? Dating yourself there. Must be 80+ now? I will wait for the jobs number on Thursday. I’m absolutely confident it will be 250k+ = disaster.

American Pastoral is his literary Masterpiece.

Amazing work, I discovered America by reading Roth and I discovered the man by watching this video!

Roth says he resists poetic metaphors yet he uses them wonderfully. Go figure.

I been reading Bailey's biography of Roth the last few weeks, and a spark has been set for me to suddenly re read most of Roth's novels. I had only read them as i approached my early 20's. Now I'm 31 (a few months shy of 32.) And damn! His writing style knocked me on my ass! I was blown away at the sheer depths, the limits and themes he touched upon and crossed with intensity and no holding back. One commenter said he was a "Titan." And i whole heartdly agree with that. He was a brilliant writer with a brilliant mind. He just takes my breath away. I personally feel from Sabbaths Theater on ward he was typing out one masterpiece after another. It's those books that made me bow down in awe of the legend that is Phillip Roth. RIP. We will never ever forget your legacy as long as we shall live. He was one of kind the world will never see again. Thanks for posting this, listened to both parts now half a dozen times, it never stops being fascinating.

It is impossible to overestimate how much conservative Jewish people, especially rabbis, were scandalized and humiliated. I met people in the 1990s who still said, "I don't like Philip Roth." After going silent for a few minutes.

You forget talk about the little and precious "diyng animal"

58.03. His eyes.

How many of you recognise the woman at 0:03? Hardly anyone I imagine. It's Gaia Servadio, ex-mother-in-law of British Prime Minister Boris Johnson. Shows the circles he moved in (liberal intelligentsia).

To me his greatest work is Sabbath's theater. Also loved American pastoral.

What’s is music in 6:51 ?

I first read Roth at the beggining of the year. Six months on I've read about 10 books by him. He is extraordinary, but never bigger then human in his dimension.

The man was a literary behemoth. A titan, bold, savage, insouciant. He had this rare, Nabakov-esque ability to conjure, to breathe life into both characters & situations with guile & menace. It’s as though his working class, immigrant background was never lost on him, professionally both upstanding & outstanding. To borrow a cricketing phrase, he came to the crease ready to bat, his fineries on display one after another, in an unrelenting deliverance to the public, he was a pugilist of a writer. And of course behind the scenes like most artists, a need to reconcile with ones self, but not in the distastefully modern self-obsessed way. There will only ever be one Philip Roth.

He was filthy. And you see the effect of that filth on our culture.

I read it at 16. My parents let me

Thanks fir recommending

Great song Prayag

Hi Prayag

Like many Jews, Roth subscribes to the dogma that anti-Semitism is a pathology whose source is Christianity and which is, therefore, inseparable from Christianity. As a result, anti-Semitism has no relationship to Jewish behavior. Jews are hated for no reason at all. As a result, anti-Semitism, because of its very irrationality, can break out at any time and at any place, even in America, where Jews, as Rabbi Daniel Lapin never tires of saying, never had it better.

Un escritor extraordinario. Gracias, Philip Roth!

I am rereading Operation Shylock ..

One of the greatest author 😍 I truly appreciate and admire that kind of writerly talent ..

In a documentary about one of my favorite writers, in the first 5 minutes, the other one of my favorite writers pops up. RIP Philip, God bless you, Salman.

1:52 - 1:58 what Bill Clinton prays for

The only people who ever read Roth are pretentious boors who wanted others to believe they were worldly and sophisticated. Roth was never anything as a writer, except a vulgar piece of dog crap who was as perverted as his characters. Exactly the kind of writer collage professors, empty-headed college students, and Nobel Prize committees love, but that the general public rightfully despises.

Not one of his books has ever given me the urge to read him

Ojalá esto estuviera subtitulado...

Like one week ago I found, on a used books store, a book called My Life as a Man by this american autor whose name, don't know why, hadn't heard before. Now I'm finishing the book, getting to know more about him and just realizing he passed away two weeks ago. Bummer, rest in peace Philip, you really deserve that Novel prize.

the voice of life

Did Roth ever mention Woody Allen or vice versa?

I'm currently writing my BA on Philip Roth's "American Pastoral" and this film helped me to understand Roth. Thanks. Greetings from Poland.

A boring bourgeois establishment voice. For a look at Roth see the following: theviolentink.blog/2017/07/01/the-sea-was-angry-that-day-some-notes-on-philip-roth/

Anyone knows the music piece at the end? Phenomenal documentary.

A wonderful documentary about Philip Roth, the great contemporary American writer, whom so many respect for and will be missed.

Brilliant tribute to the greatest lansmen writer ever!

rip

Thank god that Philip Roth is dead!

I don't think I want to live in a world without this man. :(

R. I. P

what a superb documentary

terrific documentary!

I hope that Cormac McCarthy "chatters away" like Philip Roth did.

They loved it in New Yawk, ignored it everywhere else.

this is the jew who inspire the jew weinstein to become sexual pretator.

Philip Roth seems so sad in his older years... its not easy getting older...still love his brain and silence. Love you Roth .

Seems to me that Roth is probably one of the most pleasant writers to interview. So many writers are often difficult and prickly, shooting down any suggestion that the interviewer makes about what their books mean. Roth here seems very down-to-earth and easy-going, which is refreshing.

I love to hear that a fellow pervert has been celebrated as a success. Gives me hope!
