Zuckerman Unbound
Nathan Zuckerman has published a filthy best-seller and can no longer cross Manhattan without strangers claiming him, quoting his dirtiest pages back at him or asking after his mother's health. A stalker who wants money, a brother who wants an apology and a father dying in Florida arrive in roughly that order. Roth turned the reception of Portnoy's Complaint into fiction, making celebrity rather than sex the thing that wrecks a writer.
