Description
In 1970s Prague, American novelist Nathan Zuckerman searches for the unpublished manuscript of a martyred Yiddish writer. Instead, he finds himself entangled in a series of bizarre and poignant adventures with subjugated writers who embody an appealingly perverse kind of heroism. As Zuckerman navigates this oppressive literary landscape, his own experiences are recorded in a trilogy that concludes with The Prague Orgy. This final entry provides a startling conclusion to Roth's intricate magnum opus on the unforeseen consequences of art. A unique and thought-provoking addition to Zuckerman Bound, The Prague Orgy offers a fascinating glimpse into the lives of outcast artists under totalitarian rule.
