Title: Perfect as a Self-Contained Novella
Product review: As with the rest of the Zuckerman Bound stories, The Ghost Writer is a novella among novellas, set during a very brief period of time but distilling a certain stage in the development of Zuckerman--as well as his creator--and thus capturing something of wider American culture of those same years--at least, the literary and cultural milieus Roth comes from.As always, it's Roth's very style that makes this work a classic. That and Zuckerman's scandalous Anne Frank fantasy, which is certainly one of the most daring stories of postwar fiction I've come across.
