Billed as Roth's most successful and controversial novel since "Portnoy's Complaint, Sabbath's Theater" features a characteristically libidinous protagonist, Mickey Sabbath, who, following the death of his mistress, embarks on a turbulent journey into his past.
Synopsis
Once a scandalously inventive puppeteer, Micky Sabbath at sixty-four is still defiantly antagonistic and exceedingly libidinous. But after the death of his long-time mistress - an erotic free spirit whose adulterous daring exceeds even his own - Sabbath embarks on a turbulent journey into his past.
