{"product_id":"the-professor-of-desire","title":"The Professor of Desire","description":"From the Pulitzer Prize–winning author of American Pastoral—\"a thoughtful...elegant\" (The New York Times Book Review) and often hilarous novel about the dilemma of pleasure: where we seek it; why we flee it; and how we struggle to make a truce between dignity and desire.\n\nAs a student in college, David Kepesh styles himself \"a rake among scholars, a scholar among rakes.\" Little does he realize how prophetic this motto will be—or how damning. For as Philip Roth follows Kepesh from the domesticity of childhood into the vast wilderness of erotic possibility, from a ménage à trois in London to the throes of loneliness in New York, he creates a novel that \"ranks among the major achievements in the literature of our time\" (Village Voice).\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0679749004\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: RDV.0679749004.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Roth, Philip\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: This book is in good condition with very minimal damage.
