"Time" Magazine Best American Novel (1993) In this fiendishly
imaginative book (which may or may not be fiction), Philip Roth
meets a man who may or may not be Philip Roth. Because "someone"
with that name has been touring Israel, promoting a bizarre reverse
exodus of the Jews. Roth is intent on stopping him, even if that
means impersonating his own impersonator. With excruciating
suspense, unfettered philosophical speculation, and a cast of
characters that includes Israeli intelligence agents, Palestinian
exiles, an accused war criminal, and an enticing charter member of
an organization called Anti-Semites Anonymous, Operation Shylock
barrels across the frontier between fact and fiction, seriousness
and high comedy, history and nightmare.
