Una historia íntima de inexperiencia, imprudencias, resistencia intelectual, descubrimientos sexuales, coraje y terror de la mano del genio de la literatura americana Philip Roth.
Corre 1951, el segundo año de la guerra de Corea. Marcus Messner, de Newark, Nueva Jersey, comienza su segundo curso en la bucólica y conservadora Universidad de Winesburg, en Ohio. ¿Por qué está ahí? Porque su padre, un esforzado carnicero de barrio, parece haber perdido el juicio, loco de temor y aprensión ante los peligros de la vida adulta, los peligros del mundo, los peligros que en cada esquina acechan a su amado hijo.
Indignación, relato de la formación de un joven en los tremendos riesgos y los extraños obstáculos de la vida, se suma a las agudas exploraciones de Roth sobre el impacto de la historia norteamericana en la vida del vulnerable individuo aislado.
Reseña:
«Indignación es el mejor libro de Roth desde La contravida.»
John Banville
Philip Roth (1933-2018) obtuvo el Premio Pulitzer en 1997 por Pastoral Americana. En 1998 recibió la Medalla Nacional de las Artes en la Casa Blanca y, en 2002, el máximo galardón de la Academia Americana de las Artes y Letras, la Medalla de Oro de Narrativa, previamente otorgada a John Dos Passos, William Faulkner y Saul Bellow, entre otros. Ha sido galardonado en dos ocasiones con el National Book Award, el PEN/Faulkner Award y el National Book Critics Circle Award.
En 2005, La conjura contra América recibió el premio de la Society of American Historians, concedido a «su destacada novela histórica en 2003-2004 sobre un tema histórico norteamericano» y el Premio W.H. Smith por el mejor libro del año, convirtiendo a Roth en el primer escritor en ganarlo dos veces en los cuarenta y seis años de historia del premio.
En 2005, Roth se convirtió en el tercer escritor norteamericano vivo cuya obra publicó la Library of America en una edición completa y definitiva. En 2011 recibió la National Humanities Medal en la Casa Blanca, y fue nombrado posteriormente el cuarto ganador del Man Booker International Prize. En 2012 ganó el máximo galardón de España, el Premio Príncipe de Asturias, y en 2013 ganó el más prestigioso de Francia, el Comandante de la Legión de Honor.
