L'interpretazione che emerge dalla lettura del romanzo di Roth e che l'autore dell'articolo evidenzia ruota invece attorno alla propria identità e a ciò che portiamo dentro di offensivo per noi e per l'altro. L'offesa che riteniamo di ricevere dall'altro cos'è? Qualcosa di totalmente imprevedibile, irrazionale, legato al marcio dell'altro? O è qualcosa che nasce in noi e che in noi trova alimento?
