Nominated for the Man Booker International Prize, 2007.
The hero of Everyman is obsessed with mortality. As he reminds himself at one point, "I'm 34! Worry about oblivion when you're 75." But he cannot help himself. He is the ex-husband in three marriages gone wrong. He is the father of two sons who detest him, despite a daughter who adores him. A masterful portrait of one man's inner struggles, Everyman is a brilliant showcase for one of the world's most distinguished novelists.-

Story45
The Counterlife is about people enacting their dreams of renewal and escape, some of them going so far as to risk their lives to alter seemingly irreversible destinies. Wherever they may find themselves, the characters of The Counterlife are tempted unceasingly by the prospect of an alternative existence that can reverse their fate. Illuminating these lives in transition and guiding us through the book's evocative landscapes, familiar and foreign, is the mind of the novelist Nathan Zuckerman.

"Lo Svedese" è un soprannome magico al liceo di Newark, New Jersey. Appartiene a Seymour Levov, il ragazzo che tutti vorrebbero essere. Alto, biondo, atletico, ebreo, Levov eccelle nel baseball e - nell' America degli anni '50 - è destinato ad eccellere nella vita: il successo professionale, quello famigliare, la villetta borghese. Ma la lunga ed estenuante guerra del Vietnam squasserà l'America e coinvolgerà personalmente Seymour, nel modo più tremendo.

Story10
In quest of the unpublished manuscript of a martyred Yiddish writer, the American novelist Nathan Zuckerman travels to Soviet-occupied Prague in the mid-1970s. There, in a nation straightjacketed by totalitarian Communism, he discovers a literary predicament, marked by institutionalized oppression, that is rather different from his own. He also discovers, among the oppressed writers with whom he quickly becomes embroiled in a series of bizarre and poignant adventures, a perverse kind of heroism.

At 40, the writer Nathan Zuckerman comes down with a mysterious affliction - pure pain, beginning in his neck and shoulders, invading his torso, and taking possession of his spirit. Zuckerman, whose work was his life, is unable to write a line. Now his work is trekking from one doctor to another, but none can find a cause for the pain or assuage it. Zuckerman himself wonders if the pain could have been caused by his own books.

Now in his mid-thirties, Nathan Zuckerman, a would-be recluse despite his newfound fame as a best-selling author, ventures onto the streets of Manhattan in the final year of the turbulent 60s. Not only is he assumed by his fans to be his own fictional satyr, Gilbert Carnovsky ("Hey, you do all that stuff in that book?"), he also finds himself the target of admonishers, advisors, and sidewalk literary critics. The recent murders of Robert Kennedy and Martin Luther King Jr. lead an unsettled Zuckerman to wonder if "target" may be more than a figure of speech.

In 1951, the second year of the Korean War, a studious, law-abiding, and intense youngster from Newark, New Jersey, Marcus Messner, begins his sophomore year on the pastoral, conservative campus of Ohio's Winesburg College. And why is he there and not at a local college in Newark where he originally enrolled? Because his father, the sturdy, hardworking neighborhood butcher, seems to have gone mad - mad with fear and apprehension of the dangers of adult life, the dangers of the world, the dangers he sees on every corner for his beloved boy.

Un tempo burattinaio scandalosamente creativo, a sessantaquattro anni Mickey Sabbath conserva il suo sprezzante antagonismo e la sua sfrenata libidine. Ma dopo la morte della sua amante di vecchia data – uno spirito libero in fatto di erotismo, la cui audacia nell’adulterio supera perfino quella dello stesso Sabbath, s’imbarca in un viaggio turbolento nel proprio passato. Nudo e dolente, perseguitato dai fantasmi di coloro che piú l’hanno amato e odiato, ordirà una sequela di disastri farseschi che lo condurranno sull’orlo della follia e dell’estinzione.

Coleman Silk, professore di lettere classiche all'Athena College, da cinquant'anni nasconde un segreto. Un giorno però, a pochi anni dalla pensione, basta una parola detta per sbaglio e contro di lui si scatena una violenta e ipocrita caccia alle streghe. La brillante vita accademica e la bella famiglia cedono sotto il peso del perbenismo. E non c'è scampo, perché "noi lasciamo una macchia, lasciamo la nostra impronta. Impurità, crudeltà, abuso, errore, escremento, seme: non c'è altro mezzo per essere qui".

David Kepesh, stimato critico letterario e docente universitario, da anni professa attivamente la sua fede nella liberazione sessuale con l'aiuto di uno stuolo di spigliate studentesse. A mettere in crisi il suo credo è Consuela Castillo, dignitosa e bellissima ragazza di origini cubane, che trascinerà il maturo professore nel pantano del desiderio e della gelosia, fino a un imprevedibile epilogo. Romanzo di cocente intensità, in cui si intrecciano pericolosamente i temi dell'eros e della morte.
