    <![CDATA[Along with Saul Bellow's <em>Herzog</em>, Philip Roth's <em>Portnoy's Complaint</em> defined Jewish American literature in the 1960s. Roth's masterpiece takes place on the couch of a psychoanalyst, an appropriate jumping-off place for an insanely comical novel about the Jewish American experience. Roth has written several great books--<em>Goodbye, Columbus</em> and <em>When She Was Good</em> among them, but it is perhaps <em>Portnoy's Complaint</em> for which he is best known.]]>
