Query: The emperor has no clothes

My first Roth in many years, and this slack, scattered narrative won't bring me back to his work for many more. The breathless ranting that substitutes for exposition accomplishes nothing new stylistically; in fact, the entire novel feels unedited and its jump-cut points of view unexamined. In other words, as Gertrude Stein said, there is no there there.Wish folks had the independence to lionize far better and less well-known writers instead: Patricia Henley, Will Self, Jim Crace, for starters.
