Review:
" Roth manages to tease from his subjects the convictions that fuel their work and the vulnerabilities that make them human.... Yet another example of [his] clarity of purpose and singular intelligence." -- "The New York Times Book Review
"" [Roth] brings out something adamantine and irreducible about each of his interlocutors.... Ring[s] with what his readers will recognize as...Rothian intelligence." -- "The New York Times
"" Fascinating glimpses of some of the deans of postwar literature [and] a working diagram of the very engine that makes Roth run." -- "Los Angeles Times Book Review
