Old Age as Massacre: Philip Roth’s Elegies of Aging in Everyman and American Pastoral
Abstract I intend to explore Philip Roth’s representation of aging in his 1997 novel, American Pastoral, and in the allegorical, medical life story of his generic hero, Everyman (2006). My arguments connect the writer’s constant preoccupation with the biological life of the body and the cultural significance of aging, divergently projected in these two novels.
