This is the Booker View Podcast from the New York Times.

It's November 19th.

I'm Pamela Paul.

Roth's doubt that joins us now from New Haven.

He is an opinion columnist for The New York Times, my colleague here.

He was previously an editor at The Atlantic.

He's the author of many books, including The Decadent Society to Change the Church, Bad

Religion, and Privilege.

And his latest book is called The Deep Places, A Memor of Illness and Recovery.

Roth's thanks for being here.

Thanks so much for having me.

So you and I have never met, never spoken.

We've exchanged some excellent emails though.

Yes, I feel like I know you very well.
