Sabbath’s Theater: National Book Award Winner

NATIONAL BOOK AWARD WINNER – The Pulitzer Prize-winning author of American Pastoral delivers his “”richest, most rewarding novel”” ( The New York Times Book Review ) about Micky Sabbath, a scandalous hero who embarks on a turbulent journey into his past. One of The Atlantic ‘s Great American Novels of the Past 100 Years Once an inventive puppeteer, Sabbath at sixty-four is still defiantly antagonistic and exceedingly libidinous. But after the death of his long-time mistress–an erotic free spirit whose adulterous daring surpassed even his own–Sabbath, bereft and grieving and besieged by the ghosts of those who loved and hated him most, contrives a succession of farcical disasters that take him to the brink of madness and extinction. —- ISBN: 9780679772590
