So I just finished Portnoy's Complaint. I don't really know what to think just now. The psychology of it all seemed to be handled the same way it was handled in The Recognitions. Psychoanalysis as interesting, but distant, with serious implications, but of course Oedipus and Freud are to be laughed at. I'm not sure why I picked it up, saw it somewhere I guess. I'm glad I did and I want to read more Roth later.

What did you guys think of it?

I enjoyed it for a while but was ready for it to end long before it did. I finished it but it felt like a chore.
I like Roth's later stuff more. The Ghost Writer; Operation Shylock; American Pastoral
He's one of the few American writers who I think got better as he aged.
