 For Roth fans, 900 pages of pure pleasure
For both Peter Tarnopol ("My Life") and David Kepesh ("The Professor"), a jovial false start to their lives, marked by sexual experimentation and boundless mental energy, is rapidly dispelled by depression and inertia, the result of untimely marriages to woefully inappropriate women.
Roth offers two shorter, deeply dissimilar stories, one comic and the other tragic, with the narrator of the first turning the reins of the narrative over to the second, admitting himself incapable of coping with the seriousness of what was to come.
It turns out that everyone is a critic, when it comes to Tarnopol; his therapist, ex-girlfriend and wife all engage in similar deconstructions of his work, mostly arriving at the conclusion that the writer is a shameless fabulist and narcissist.

Roth writes a book from the point of view of Peter Tarnopol, who, in turn, writes two stories and an autobiographical essay, the first two of which are narrated by Zuckerman, who would come back continually in the writings of Roth.
And Zuckerman's stories (he's a writer, too) are constructed by Tarnopol from events in his own life, which are indecipherable until his autobiography, which Roth has created by teasing us with what might be taken from his real life.
The central relationship, of Tarnopol to his wife, works itself out in different ways in the Zuckerman tales, but Tarnopol, we must remember, is himself a creation.
