Reviews
Roth's canvas is at once expansive and painstakingly detailed...The pages of American Pastoral crackle with the electricity and zest of a first-rate mind at work., "Roth has chronicled the rise and fall of one man's fortunes and in doing so created a resonant parable of American innocence and disillusion . . . A fiercely affecting work of art." -- Michiko Kakutani

Synopsis
American Pastoral is the story of a fortunate American's rise and fall - of a strong, confident master of social equilibrium overwhelmed by the forces of social disorder. Seymour "Swede" Levov - a legendary high school athlete, a devoted family man, a hard worker, the prosperous inheritor of his father's Newark glove factory - comes of age in thriving, triumphant postwar America. But everything he loves is lost when the country begins to run amok in the turbulent 1960s. Not even the most private, well-intentioned citizen, it seems, gets to sidestep the sweep of history. With vigorous realism, Roth takes us back to the conflicts and violent transitions of the 1960s. This is a book about loving - and hating - America. It's a book about wanting to belong - and refusing to belong - to America. It sets the desire for an American pastoral - a respectable life of space, calm, order, optimism, and achievement - against the indigenous American Berserk.

    Seller accepted "Make Offer" on their listing at a relatively later time in the evening. Seller still provided a tracking number that same night and tendered the package by the middle of the next day. Arrived 4 business days later. Packed with plenty of packing material in a sturdy box. Exactly as described and photographed, and in perfect working order. Terrific experience, at a value overall, from a terrific seller! All eBay sellers should aspire to being like this seller.

    The shipping was fast and packaged adequately for a DVD. The DVD was as described, and the pricing was a good buy for me. The DVD itself was in very good condition and plays as it should. The shipping charge was reasonable. Thank you for a very nice eBay transaction. Beryl
