- Roth's literary legacy across contemporary fiction, Jewish literature, the arts, and culture studies
- Key contexts including American political movements since the 1950s, the American Jewish experience, and intertextual relationships
Uniting scholars and artists who have built the field of Philip Roth studies from the ground up along with emergent scholars from around the world, this Handbook includes chapter summaries, study questions, and an author biography and timeline that includes key dates in Roth's life and publication history. It also contains a bibliography of secondary sources for further reading as well as an overview of film and television adaptations.
