Description

But where Kafka’s protagonist turned into a giant beetle, the narrator of Philip Roth’s richly conceived fantasy has become a 155-pound female breast.What follows is a deliriously funny yet touching exploration of the fully implications of Kepesh’s metamorphosis – a daring, heretical book that brings us face to face with the intrinsic strangeness of sex and subjectivity.
