- Abstract: Summary: "This fifth volume of The Library of America's definitive edition of Philip Roth's collected works presents four books that exemplify the description of Roth ... as a writer 'who never steps twice into the same river.' The Counterlife (1986) is a novel told from conflicting perspectives about people enacting drastic dreams of renewal and escape. The Facts (1987)--the first of the 'Roth Books'--is a novelist's autobiography in which the author presents his own battles defictionalized and unadorned. In the second Roth Book, Deception (1990), a married American named Philip, living in London, and the married Englishwoman who is his mistress meet sporadically in a secret trysting place where the woman eloquently reveals herself to her lover as they talk before and after making love. In the third Roth Book, Patrimony (1991), the author watches as his 86-year-old father, Herman Roth, battles a fatal brain tumor."--Jacket.
