Patrimony , a true story, touches the emotions as strongly as anything Philip Roth has ever written. Roth watches as his eighty-six-year-old father—famous for his vigor, charm, and his repertoire of Newark recollections—battles with the brain tumor that will kill him. The son, full of love, anxiety, and dread, accompanies his father through each fearful stage of his final ordeal, and, as he does so, discloses the survivalist tenacity that has distinguished his father's long, stubborn engagement with life.

終於找了個晚上把這本給看了，絕對沒想到這是本這麼摧淚的書TAT 之前苗兒和Juli說書感動死的時候我還在納悶---真這麼感人麼？Roth根本沒有想要故意摧淚甚麼的，就是這麼平實地記錄着和他爸爸最後的點滴，也順帶講了他父親的一生。一句話拿出來看是再平常不過但放在某段裡面卻不禁落淚，沒想到過下面這句話就會直接戳中淚點，那段電話里直播球賽的幾乎是一邊哭一邊笑地讀完的。讀着這本的同時還會不禁聯想到外公外婆...終於找了個晚上把這本給看了，絕對沒想到這是本這麼摧淚的書TAT 之前苗兒和Juli說書感動死的時候我還在納悶---真這麼感人麼？Roth根本沒有想要故意摧淚甚麼的，就是這麼平實地記錄着和他爸爸最後的點滴，也順帶講了他父親的一生。一句話拿出來看是再平常不過但放在某段裡面卻不禁落淚，沒想到過下面這句話就會直接戳中淚點，那段電話里直播球賽的幾乎是一邊哭一邊笑地讀完的。讀着這本的同時還會不禁聯想到外公外婆，I must not forget anything. 看到後來都會忘掉其實這是因為Jesse而去看的書，想必他讀的時候應該比我們感慨深多了，畢竟同樣是猶太移民，另外他很少很少提到他父親，而這本卻幾乎全部在講述父輿子。(展开)
平静的文笔，真实的描述，如同纪录片。面对人生暮年的生命必修课，面对如今frail, vulnerable的父亲，一切都要比想象的更加不易。如何跨越生死，做到沉浸其中又超然于外，放下放不下的，看开看不开的，选择所剩无几的选择，以维护生命质量，to “navigate” on his own为前提，这些都需要一定的慧力。
唉，好难好痛好无望......

由继承家庭遗产联系到犹太一族在美国的生存问题，立意挺好，文字很生活化，但本身就是作者的回忆，也很正常。

看到这本书的结尾的时候正在连夜回沈阳的飞机上。爸爸刚做手术就阳了，妈妈还要去化疗。 有些事情不是不去想就不存在的，有些界限，真真切切的在那里。但两者模糊重合的阶段，怕是穷尽所有情感都写不下的

"dying is work and he was a worker" 把最私密的一段路拿出来反复走过，把最珍稀的记忆提取出来压榨，直到消耗干净，再公诸于世，也不是谁都能做到的。

Roth wrote in such an intimate way - the story is personal yet universal. I will have to read it again at some point of my life.
