Synopsis
During the time of President Clinton's impeachment hearings, Coleman Silk--a classics professor at a small New England college--is undergoing a trial of his own: he has been accused of racism, and his job is in jeopardy. Silk is innocent of the charge, but he is, in fact, guilty of something else--a fact about himself he has kept completely secret for half a century. When Silk's friend (and Philip Roth's perennial hero) Nathan Zuckerman looks into the scandal, he unearths the complicated and stunning truth. Along with AMERICAN PASTORAL and I MARRIED A COMMUNIST, THE HUMAN STAIN is part of (in Roth's words) "a thematic trilogy, dealing with the historical moments in postwar American life that have had the greatest impact on my generation." It won the 2001 PEN/Faulkner Award for Fiction and was a New York Times "Editors' Choice" for one of the best books of 2000.

Publisher's Note
In an insightful new novel by the Pulitzer Prize- and National Book Award-winning author of I Married a Communist, a college professor with a sexual indiscretion in his past is hounded from his job by academic enemies who label him a racist. Reissue. (A Miramax Films & Paramount Pictures film, written by Nicholas Meyer, directed by Robert Benton, releasing Fall 2003, starring Anthony Hopkins, Nicole Kidman, Gary Sinise, & Ed Harris) (General Fiction)

Industry Reviews
"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."
Wall Street Journal - Sam Tanenhaus (05/07/2000)

"The novel is strongest and is even magical when Zuckerman is actually present on the page....THE HUMAN STAIN is an astonishing, uneven and often very beautiful book."
New York Times Book Review - Lorrie Moore (05/07/2000)

"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."
Chicago Tribune Books - Bruce Morton (04/30/2000)
