En el verano de 1944, una epidemia de polio azota la ciudad de Newark, Nueva Jersey, causando estragos entre los niños. Bucky Cantor, un joven profesor de educación física, se siente frustrado por no poder servir en la guerra debido a su mala visión. A medida que la enfermedad se propaga, Cantor se enfrenta a dilemas morales y personales, lidiando con el miedo, la ira y el sufrimiento que la epidemia genera en la comunidad. Esta novela explora las decisiones que marcan nuestras vidas y nuestra impotencia ante las circunstancias.
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.
