Sabbath's Theatre by Philip Roth
An aging, disgraced puppeteer and unrepentant libertine spirals through grief after his lover’s death, ricocheting between compulsive desire, corrosive shame, and the lure of suicide. As he revisits old friends, failed marriages, and family ghosts, his transgressions collide with moments of stark self-scrutiny, yielding a darkly comic meditation on lust, mortality, and the uneasy boundary between freedom and self-destruction.
