Ignore the back cover. American Pastoral is set over many periods of time and it's more about how we reconcile conflicting values, how we take responsibility of ourselves and our children, and basically live in a world fractured by radicals on the left and on the right. It's a very nuanced, very human book, certainly not a "60s book", just as Philip Roth is not a "60s writer".

Relax shortstoryfan, Logos is a sweetie really but she won't put up with the kind of nonsense that occurred recently when two grown men started trading verbal blows over (can you believe it ?) HARRY POTTER.
