Pulitzer Prize winning author, best known for "Goodbye, Columbus", RIP.
"One problem with people who have no vices is that they're pretty sure to have some annoying virtues."
Very controversial and very talented writer. I couldn't stop reading anything he wrote, no matter how upsetting it was.
He wrote about very flawed, very troubled, very human characters, the most flawed being the autobiographical ones. I always saw Larry David as the comic version of Roth.

The Plot Against America is a terrific alternate history novel.
