Sobre este artículo
New York: Farrar Straus and Giroux, 1983. Preceded by 1979's The Ghost Writer and 1981's Zuckerman Bound, The Anatomy Lesson is a continuation of the story of Roth's alter ego, Nathan Zuckerman, who finds himself having just buried his father and facing middle age. Fellow novelist Martin Amis wrote of the book: "'The Anatomy Lesson' may be the third and final installment of the Zuckerman trilogy, but it is also Roth's second consecutive novel about what success is like. Such fixity!... He has now written two autobiographical novels about the consequences of writing autobiographical novels," adding, "no modern writer, perhaps no writer, has taken self-examination so far and so literally." "The Anatomy Lesson is a ferocious, heartfelt book...lavish with laughs and flamboyant inventions" (John Updike, The New Yorker).
