Publisher Notes

The death of his mistress sends Mickey Sabbath, an audacious libertine and onetime puppeteer, on a psychic journey into his past.

Media Reviews

"...like the suicide note of a man who has become so engrossed explaining why he'd like to die that he forgets to kill himself....Mr. Roth's final joke may be that, pursuing an obsession with sex, he has evolved into a religious writer."
