EP 226: Book Review: Philip Roth’s “American Pastoral”

Fortunus Games, the host of this podcast, reviews one of her favorite books, Philip Roth’s “American Pastoral.”

This book explores how an all-American athlete, veteran, and business owner's life falls apart when his daughter becomes a radical anti-war protestor. A critique of the American dream and the dangers of conventionalism, "American Pastoral" is the first of Roth's American Trilogy and is followed by "I Married a Communist" and "The Human Stain."

Listen to this episode to find out why Fortunus gave the book 4.5/5 stars.
