Philip Warner was saved by his tough-mindedness and by his belief in the virtues of loyalty. To help his fellow prisoners forget their troubles, he organised plays, talks and debates. Afterwards, he never liked to mention his ordeal. He worked on the principle that, once he had covered a page with writing, he could always cross it out.

Philip Roth’s Best Book. Novelists, critics and historians make their case. In that spirit, we asked a number of great, contemporary novelists, critics and historians, to make their own case for Roth’s greatest book

Philip Roth’s Best Book. The death of Philip Roth this week led to near instantaneous debate about which of his books was his best. There was the transgressive Roth; the epic, historical Roth; the personal, memoiristic Roth; the postmodernist playful Roth. In that spirit, we asked a number of great, contemporary novelists, critics and historians, to make their own case for Roth’s greatest book. It’s silly to have to choose, of course, but for those only now coming to his work, consider these good places to start.
