As a college student, David Kepesh styles himself as "a rake among scholars, a scholar among rakes" - an identity that will cling to him for a lifetime. As Philip Roth follows Kepesh from the domesticity of childhood out into the vast wilderness of erotic possibility, from a ménage à trois in London to the depths of loneliness in New York, Kepesh confronts the central dilemma of pleasure : how to make a truce between dignity and desire ; and how to survive the ordeal of an unhallowed existence.
