Carnival in Prague (complete Works by Philip Roth)

About This Novel

The successful Nathan Zuckerman came to Prague in the mid-1970s. Here he discovered a completely different literary predicament and experienced a series of fantastic and poignant adventures. "Prague Carnival" presents Zuckerman's sojourn life with the exiled artists in the form of a diary, and tells the struggle of these morally bankrupt artists in a totalitarian society: while they indulge themselves in carnival and exile, they are also using their bodies to resist the constraints of their spirits. Philip Roth uses this book to explore the difficult fate and living conditions of intellectuals in harsh political situations, and his writing reveals profound concern and sympathy.
