What an incredible idea and setting. Philip Roth goes to Israel to cover the trial of Nazi war criminal John Dejamanuk and he meets Phip Roth. The comic features on top of a very serious exploration of who we are move the book forward. The dual or dueling Roth's provide a window into the complexity of our being, thinking, politics, and aesthetics. I can't wait to finish this but right now my bedside table is overloaded with books-in-process.
