Review:

"Roth expertly captures the overheated atmosphere of a campus witch hunt, but his book isn't a diatribe against political correctness or academic life; he has a larger target in mind. The novel takes place in 1998, as President Clinton is being impeached by the same forces of narrow-minded righteousness that are persecuting Coleman Silk.THE HUMAN STAIN is the latest volley in Roth's lifelong war against small-mindedness in American life."

Bruce Morton, Chicago Tribune Books, 04/30/2000

Review:

"THE HUMAN STAIN is perhaps a less finished work than its two predecessors, but the task Mr. Roth has assayed here is more difficult. Rather than sift through the accumulated data of the known past, he has sought to capture in all its contradictions the unknowable present, to record 'the history that isn't yet history, the history that the clock is now ticking off, the history proliferating as I write.' He has succeeded magnificently. Long after the nonfiction accounts of the Clinton era have faded from memory, THE HUMAN STAIN will remain, a master novelist's haunting parable about our troubled modern moment."

Sam Tanenhaus, Wall Street Journal, 05/07/2000

Book Description: VINTAGE, United Kingdom, 2005. Paperback. Book Condition: New. New edition. 199 x 132 mm. Brand New Book with Free Worldwide Delivery. Coleman Silk has a secret. But it's not the secret of his affair, at seventy-one, with a woman half his age. And it's not the secret of his alleged racism, which provoked the college witchhunt that cost him his job. Coleman's secret is deeper, and lies at the very core of who he is, and he has kept it hidden from everyone for fifty years. Set in 1998, with the backdrop of the impeachment of a president, "The Human Stain" shows us an America where conflicting moralities and ideological divisions result in public denunciations and houndings, and where innocence is not always a good enough excuse.
