"Perhaps the reader may ask, of what consequence is it whether the author's exact language is preserved or not, provided we have his thought? The answer is, that inaccurate quotation is a sin against truth. It may appear in any particular instance to be a trifle, but perfection consists in small things, and perfection is no trifle."
- Robert W. Shaunon

This modern classic of the Jewish American experience centers around one Alexander Portnoy, who on the couch of his psychoanalyst, confesses everything from his adolescent preoccupation with masturbation to his subjugation by his dominating mother, Sophie.

With a new Afterword by the author for the 25th Anniversary edition.
"Touching as well as hilariously lewd.... Roth is vibrantly talented...as marvelous a mimic and fantasist as has been produced by the most verbal group in human history."
—Alfred Kazin, New York Review of Books
"Deliciously funny...absurd and exuberant, wild and uproarious... a brilliantly vivid reading experience."—New York Times Book Review
