Hardback. Condición: Good. A dazzling novel about a man and woman married to other people--and the riveting conversations that take place before and after they make love--from the acclaimed Pulitzer Prize-winning author of American Pastoral. This swift, elegant, disturbing novel.stands at the extreme of contemporary fiction. --The New York Times Book Review With the lover everyday life recedes, Roth writes--and exhibiting all his skill as a brilliant observer of human passion, he presents in Deception the tightly enclosed world of adulterous intimacy with a directness that has no equal in American fiction. At the center of Deception are two adulterers in their hiding place. He is a middle-aged American writer named Philip, living in London, and she is an articulate, intelligent, well-educated Englishwoman compromised by a humiliating marriage to which, in her thirties, she is already nervously half-resigned. The book's action consists of conversation--mainly the lovers talking to each other before and after making love. That dialogue--sharp, rich, playful, inquiring, moving, as Hermione Lee writes, on a scale of pain from furious bafflement to stoic gaiety--is nearly all there is to this book, and all there needs to be.
