Philip Roth: The Biography by Blake Bailey

2.0

Do I not enjoy biography, or did I just not enjoy this one? I felt like I had already encountered almost all of the more interesting tidbits from Philip Roth’s life in his fiction. Granted, this may be a problem more than a little unique to Roth as a subject for biography. The book was well-written and exhaustive, but for me, also exhausting.
