Synopsis

Zuckerman Unbound is a 1981 novel by the American author Philip Roth. Like much of Roth's fiction, this book confronts the tenuous relationship between an author and his artistic creations. It resumes the story of Roth's fictional alter ego Nathan Zuckerman that was inaugurated in Roth's previous novel The Ghost Writer.

About Trilby & Co. Books

Trilby & Co. Books is located in Northern California. The company was founded years ago by a Shetland Sheepdog named Trilby. Trilby's message to her family was brief and direct - the sale of books would increase disposable income and improve the quality of provisions in her food dish. My name is McTavish (picture above). I am the current CEO of this company, and I approve of her message. Oh, by the way, my speciality is literature, with an emphasis on first editions and signed books.
