'A work of near heroic vitality and cunning' Sunday Telegraph

At sixty-four Mickey Sabbath is still defiantly antagonistic and exceedingly libidinous; sex is an obsession and a principle, an instrument of perpetual misrule in his daily existence.

But after the death of his long-time mistress - an erotic free spirit whose great taste for the impermissible matches his own - Sabbath embarks on a turbulent journey into his past. Bereft and grieving, tormented by the ghosts of those who loved and hated him, he contrives a succession of farcical disasters that take him to the brink of madness and extinction...

Winner of the National Book Award for Fiction

Recensioni della critica

A post-war American masterpiece
This is a wickedly splendid book (Frank Kermode)
In time this will be seen as Roth's best novel
For me, the book of the year - maybe the decade - is Sabbath's Theater...funny...moving, imaginative, deep... A masterpiece
Sabbath explodes some mad genie out of his bottle... Sabbath's Theater has more firestorming prose than any other novel I have read this year
A work of near-heroic vitality and cunning
Absolutely filthy book with one of the most unpleasantly priapic and desperate anti-heroes in modern literature. A delight (Nigel Lindsay)
This is the first of Roth’s late masterworks, and the most powerful (Orlando Figes)
