Query: A fabulous book that asks questions about life.

This book approachs a major question about relationships that happens to be framed in post-war suburban New Jersey. Having grown up in that area during that time improves my understanding and appreciation of the depth of understanding Roth illustrates. What is it that makes a child abhor the seemingly perfect life of her parents and their values? Why are the child's values, undoubtedly taught by the parents at some level, violently opposed to those of her teacher parents? Why couldn't Swede take a stand about anything? These are transcendent questions that give power and emotion to this work. If you want a standard crafted plot, watch TV; if you want to think, try this book.
