5 Talkbacks for this article
1. To quote from Blazing Saddles: "he used his mouth like a $5
(05.23.18)
whore" :-)
Had a way with words, but a lousy Yid he was nevertheless...
2. May he rest in peace, I loved to read the human stain
Tehraniporou   (05.24.18)
We have a saying in French, les petits ruiseaux sont transparents, les rivières quant à elle ont de la profondeur
3. He was independent, brave, smart, truthful, a giant writer.
Michael ,   California, USA   (05.25.18)
He represented the assimilated among us, those of us who proudly adhere to the culture of our predecessors and walk with our heads up along with everybody who is successful. Like Phillip Roth, we are no less than others in anything, not weaker nor inferior, we are part of the best in all of the cultures without depending on any bullsh*t supposedly granted from the imaginary world above us. Rest in Peace Phillip Roth as you continue to shine in your legacy.
4. Add him to the long list of Jews infected with Self Hate
JewHatersHero ,   Jerusalem Israel   (05.26.18)
"Every Jew writes the history of his people for good or fool evil"
I guess we know where to find his signature
5. Roth seemed to dislike being Jewish
Tova   (06.03.18)
Roth does not identify himself as Jew. Why the fuss. He is gone.
This is a man I would not consider meeting. He obviously dislikes being Jewish and typically he represents Jews who think because they live in America.
No harm would ever come them. It also sounds to me Roth is a man with
a heart of stone. No thanks - I haven't read any of his books.

This is man clearly who rejects GOD.
