Patrimony: A True Story

A Memoir of Estrangement, Reconciliation, and the Power of Art

In this powerful and moving memoir, Philip Roth tells the story of his estrangement from his father, Herman, and their eventual reconciliation.

The two men clashed frequently, and Roth eventually left home to pursue his writing career.
