The Plot Against America
2 journalers for this copy...
Philip Roth is brilliant. If you don't agree:
(a) you're wrong and
(b) I'm not talking to you any more
This is one of his best. He envisions an America where President Charles Lindbergh reaches an accord with the Nazis, and the USA opts-out of WWII. The consequences for America's jews are played out out in the rest of the novel. Frighteningly believable, especially given the current Madness of Crowds that characterises the US body politic.
