Exciting,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], important, a great American novel.
John Barth emerged as one of the most exciting and promising novelists of his generation with the publication of his first novel,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych],The Floating Opera . The subsequent appearance ofThe End of the Road ,The Sot-Weed Factor , andGiles Goat-Boy has more than justified this promise.
InThe End of the Road , Barth tells an intensely perceptive, funny, and savagely realistic tale, with a principal character, Jake Horner, who has been described as "one of the most fantastically dreadful" to appear in a long time.

"The End of the Roadhas more freshness,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], more wit and invention,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and more intellectual life of its own than most recent American fiction. It is a horrifying book too, and neither the vocabulary nor the situations will recommend themselves to the squeamish." --Harper's

"A brilliant novel of marital infidelity on a college campus by the best writer we have at the present, and one of the best we have ever had." --New York Times
