Wallows in the worst emotional impulses of humanity, offering no redemption or possibility of overcoming.

I think he got worse with age

I found much of his work to be unrelatable, because while, I too, have been accused of bigotry by my students, I was never ousted from my tenure, nor am I secretly an African-American.

The denouement of American Pastoral is a master class in psychological implosion. The Human Stain prophetically upgraded 90s PC cult programming to 2015 proportions. The Ghost Writer hauntingly resurrects the Holocaust in the milieu of turgid academia. He should be read.
