| book description |

Discover the Pulitzer Prize-winning author's remarkably imaginative counterfactual American history, with frighteningly real insights into the way we live now. In 1940, Franklin Delano Roosevelt loses the presidential election. Jewish households across America are gripped by uncertainty and fear when the landslide winner takes office. Charles A. Lindbergh is a celebrated aviator and rabid isolationist, who has publicly blamed the Jews for pushing America towards a 'pointless' war with Nazi Germany. Under Lindbergh, the United States signs a cordial 'understanding' with Adolf Hitler and becomes menacingly anti-Semitic. In this startling counterfactual nightmare, Philip Roth recounts a ghettoised childhood and the fate of his Newark family in an alternative America oblivious to its own dark metamorphosis.
