Philip Roth, For Better, For Worse, Forever?
This week, Thea Lenarduzzi and Lucy Dallas are joined by Elaine Showalter, Professor Emerita of English at Princeton University, to discuss Blake Bailey\u2019s keenly anticipated \u2018Philip Roth: The biography\u2019; and Alexandra Harris, the author of \u2018Weatherland: Artist and writers under English skies\u2019, considers a twenty-first century perspective on Joseph Wright of Derby, an eighteenth-century painter who is perhaps more darkness than light, more magic than science, and who deserves to be ranked among Europe\u2019s greats.
