Roth Society

The Philip Roth Society, a new organization devoted to the study and the
appreciation of the writings of Philip Roth, will soon inaugurate a
newsletter, and it's looking for individuals interested in contributing.
 As this is a literary newsletter, contributions should not be long and
journal-length. Brief writings concerning Roth and his fiction, in any
way and from any approach, are welcome.

The goal of the Philip Roth Society is to encourage the exchange of
ideas and texts concerning this most significant author through
discussions, panel presentations at scholarly conferences, and journal
publications. The newsletter will be a major factor in accomplishing
this.
