Book Reviews of Goodbye, Columbus & Other Stories
Book Review: The debut book of an American master
Summary: 5 Stars
This is yet another edition of Roth's debut work. In it we feel a writer of incredible maturity and aesthetic feeling. The voice is more restrained and judicious, more Fitgerald-like than the later Roth. But how gifted, inventive each of the stories.
This is not yet the deepest Rothlike Roth the one that will appear in Portnoy but it a small American classic nonetheless.
