Here's what I know: if a book features some old dude fucking some younger lady, check the author's age. 100% of the time, he's the same age as the old dude.The younger woman will be vulnerable. She will be attracted to the older man's security and wisdom. There is a power imbalance, and it's basically the same thing as when Tarzan saves Jane from the lion. It's embarrassing, immature wish-fulfillment. And even when it's written very well, it's boring. This book is occasionally written very well, but it also has the young lady dancing naked for like 20 pages while she babbles about free love. "Oh, I see you, Coleman. I could give you away my whole life and still have you. Just by dancing." Good luck getting through that bullshit. It suuuucks.And you've heard this story before. Old guys complain that no one wants to read old guy authors. It's not because we're "politically correct." It's because old men can't shut up about their penises, and it's boring. The entire canon, as it was agreed on at some point by a bunch of old guys and their boring penises, is full of stories like this. Coleman Silk, in The Human Stain, is one of those old guys. He's the worst kind of college professor: the kind who tells you how to read a book. "Fossilized pedagogy," as a character we're not supposed to agree with calls it. Fuck you, it's my fucking book, I'll decide how to read it. If I decide to take "a feminist perspective on Euripides," then that's what happens. Euripides can take care of himself.Silk is also of African-American descent; he's been "passing" as white his entire life. Ironically, he's disgraced by an unfortunately timed use of the word "spook." This is the one-sentence plot of the book: guy accused of racism is secretly black. It sounds interesting, but the problem is that Philip Roth thinks it's a metaphor for …

”All he’d ever wanted, from earliest childhood on, as to be free: not black, not even white--just on his own and free. He meant no insult to no one by his choice, nor was he trying to irritate anyone whom he took to be his superior, nor was he staging some sort of protest against his race or hers. He recognized that to conventional people for whom everything was ready-made and rigidly unalterable what he was doing would never look correct. But to dare to be nothing more than correct had never been his aim. The objective was for his fate to be determined not by the ignorant, hate-filled intentions of a hostile world but, to whatever degree humanly possible, by his own resolve. Why accept a life on any other terms?”Coleman Silk went into the Navy as a Caucasian because his pigment allowed him to do so. After a perceptive whore (they are bona fide experts on the male anatomy) in a brothel noticed something about his physique that gave him away as black he was hurled from the establishment. His girlfriend in college who thought he was white met his parents only to learn differently. She, after a moment of hysterics, dumped him. It wasn’t hard to understand that life provided more opportunities if the world perceived him as white. The timely death of his father, who would have put a kibosh on the whole thing, gave him the freedom to choose. His mother, his brother, and his sister were simply people that had to be carefully cut out of his life. ”You don’t have to murder your father. The world will do that for you. There are plenty of forces out to get your father. The world will take care of him, as it had indeed taken care of Mr. Silk.”Silk married and landed a job at Athena College. He advanced to the position of Dean of Faculty. He was respected, but as happens with most successful people he …

New content will be added above the current area of focus upon selection
How does one review a book such as this? I need to be careful not to give anything away. The Human Stain by Philip Roth fascinated me – Roth drilled down into each character in such detail a less talented author would have been accused of ‘banging on’ too much. He moved around seamlessly between subjects and people, but the best for me, was the stream of surprises he threw in my face. Gosh moments.This book is set in the mid to late ‘90s - America, the time when Billy Boy Clinton was engaging in vertical refreshments in The Oval Office – I still feel for Monica during that sordid episode - poor thing. Anyway, it was good to refresh one’s memory of the times – the great movie, American Beauty (when Spacey was still cool), Spice Girls (still cool – well Ginger is), post-Soviet Europe and the Internet was truly taking off – heady times indeed. This is all about Coleman Silk, a Classics Academic, married, he has a handful of adult kids and is known as a leader in the academic community of Athena College in Massachusetts. However, recent events have seen him occupy less senior positions within the college. In fact, he is experiencing a downfall, a downfall in disgrace. He is close to retirement age – around seventy. Anyway, Coleman is accused of using a racial slur when referring to some students. The veracity of this accusation is opaque to say the least, but either way – it has a profound impact in him and his reputation in the college and the community. This incident sparks a whole bunch of events that change his life, and the life of those around him forever.Roth’s style reminded me somewhat of John Updike. Now, I’m not an expert on either writer, only read one work of the former and two of the latter – but to me, the resemblance is striking. So, if you stridently …
