Inheritance

"Inheritance: A True Story" is one of the best and most unusual books by Philip Roth.
Roth sees how his father (at the age of 86), a man of extraordinary courage and charm, struggles with a brain tumor that will eventually... kill him. His loving son, with anxiety and horror, accompanies his father through all the terrifying stages of this final ordeal, and along the way, he discovers the remarkable persistence that characterized his father throughout his long and challenging life, which he overcame with such resilience.
Roth wrote about his father without sentimentality. And "Inheritance" is a triumph of relentless memory and, at the same time, a touching, poignant book about what it means to be a father.
