Synopsis

It is 1951 in America, the second year of the Korean War. Marcus Messner of Newark, New Jersey is beginning his sophomore year on the pastoral, conservative Winesburg College in Ohio. Why is he here? Because his father, a hard-working neighborhood butcher, seems to have gone mad – mad with fear and apprehension of the dangers of adult life, the dangers of the world, the dangers he sees in every corner for his beloved boy.
Indignation, the story of a young man's education in life's terrifying chances and bizarre obstructions is a powerful addition to Roth's investigations of the impact of American history on the life of the vulnerable individual.
