520			_aPhilip Roth died on May 22, 2018, he was 85 years old. He leaves a considerable work to which I want to try to pay tribute, first, by underlining its scandalous character. Roth was accused of anti-Semitism, pornography and misogyny, and for these reasons, vilified in the public space. This may be explained by the fact that his books are full of provocations, and that they try to paint human experience, sometimes in its greatness and often in its littleness. According to Roth, literature has no moral lesson to give, nor to receive, because its function is not to express any ideal of purity or goodness, but to describe reality with the help of some literary means, to keep it at bay using mockery and ridicule, and reveal its darkest aspects.
