Not only do I fully agree, but I add this: _The Centaur_ is a wow as is his memoir _Self-Consciousness--and virtually all else, including the poetry. Similarly, Roth was too often taken down as mysogynist. I argue that _The Dying Animal_, takedown by Kakutani of the NYTimes, is a brilliant view from a man's point ol view and I think Roth knew exactly what he was doing with this male character. What do you think?
