Description - Patrimony: A True Story by Philip Roth

"Patrimony," a true story, touches the emotions as strongly as anything Philip Roth has ever written. Roth watches as his eight-six-year-old father-famous for his vigor, his charm, and his repertoire of Newark recollections-battles with the brain tumor that will kill him. The son, full of love, anxiety, and dread, accompanies his father through each fearful stage of his final ordeal, and, as he does so, discloses the survivalist tenacity that has distinguished his father's long, stubborn engagement with life.
