Biography & Autobiography. Literary Criticism. Nonfiction. On March 19, 2013, a distinguished group of writers and critics gathered at the Newark Museumâ??s Billy Johnson Auditorium in Newark, New Jersey, to celebrate the extraordinary career and lasting literary legacy of Philip Roth on the occasion of his 80th birthday.

This is a collection of remarks delivered at a birthday tribute for Philip Roth in 2013. It was a bit of lagniappe through my Library of America subscription, and I read it to see what admirers from the world of literature and philosophy had to say about Roth's work. I came away with a grudging acceptance of the fact that I probably am missing something, that Roth's body of work is more significant than its individual parts might suggest...but not with any desire to read further of Zuckerman or Sabbath. Roth's own comments at the event, which concludes this slim volume, annoyed me as much as anything else of his I've read. He just isn't talking to me. So, as my beautiful 18-month-old grandniece is fond of saying, I am, as far as Roth is concerned, emphatically "Done!". I did learn that he loves Faulkner. Well, good.
