In 2012, as he approached 80, Philip Roth famously announced that he had retired from writing. (He actually stopped 2 years earlier.) In the years since, Roth has spent a certain amount of time setting the record straight. He wrote a lengthy and impassioned letter to @wikipedia, challenging the online encyclopedia’s preposterous contention that he was not a credible witness to his own life. (Eventually, @wikipedia backed down and redid the Roth entry in its entirety.) He’s also in regular touch with his official biographer, who has already amassed 1,900 pages of notes for a book expected to be half that length. And just recently, he supervised the publication of “Why Write?,” the 10th and last volume in the @libraryofamerica edition of his work. How else does the (former) novelist spend his time. Sudoku? Daytime TV? He reads, “strangely or not so strangely, very little fiction,” Roth told @ニューヨーク・タイムズ. “I spent my whole working life reading fiction, teaching fiction, studying fiction and writing fiction. I thought of little else until about 7 years ago.” Since then he’s spent a good part of each day reading history. “Reading has taken the place of writing, and constitutes the major part, the stimulus, of my thinking life,” he said. @philipmontgomery took this photo of #PhilipRoth at his home on the Upper West Side of Manhattan.
