Do you need to read Philip Roth's American Trilogy - American Pastoral, I married a communist, and The Human Stain - in order? Or is it recommended?

Bustin' Jiber The three books are barely connected, only with the narrator and where they happen. You can read them in any order.
Paul Lipkin While not having read any of the others, I was impressed by the end how of little importance the narrator played. In fact, the opening with the narrator is barely connected with the core narrative of this book.
Liber CatSbd No. They are independent with different characters.
