N1 - Taken from letter dated 19th Feb 2012
This is to indicate that Dr. Aliki Varvogli’s essay, “The Inscription of Terrorism: Philip Roth’s American Pastoral,” appeared in the Fall 2007 issue of Philip Roth Studies (volume 3, number 2). Normally our fall issues are finalized and out in print by December of the year indicated on the cover, but with the issue in which Dr. Varvogli’s essay appeared, we were late in finalizing all of the mansucripts. As such, the issue that is marked as Fall 2007 did not actually come out in print until the beginning of 2008.

N2 - Drawing on interviews and essays in which Roth has discussed how he perceives his place in literature and in society, the author argues that American Pastoral highlights the affinity between the writer and the terrorist as creative and destructive agents of change. By paying close attention to the book's formal complexities, the author concludes that Zuckerman's seeming identification with Seymour Levov is deceptive, and the narrator is idealogically more understanding of the terrorist daughter than he is of her "depthless" father.
