El lamento de Portnoy es una novela del escritor estadounidense Philip Roth, publicada en 1969. La novela está narrada como una larga sesión de psicoanálisis del protagonista, Alexander Portnoy, quien relata sus frustraciones y complejos desde su infancia en un hogar judío de clase media en Nueva Jersey hasta sus problemáticas relaciones con las mujeres. La obra ofrece una visión lúcida e irónica de las costumbres y la psicología judías, así como del desmoronamiento del sueño americano.

Philip Milton Roth was an American novelist and short-story writer. Roth's fiction—often set in his birthplace of Newark, New Jersey—is known for its intensely autobiographical character, for philosophically and formally blurring the distinction between reality and fiction, for its "sensual, ingenious style" and for its provocative explorations of Jewish and American identity. He first gained attention with the 1959 short story collection Goodbye, Columbus, which won the U.S. National Book Award for Fiction. Ten years later, he published the bestseller Portnoy's Complaint. Nathan Zuckerman, Roth's literary alter ego, narrates several of his books. A fictionalized Roth narrates some of his others, such as the alternate history The Plot Against America.
