Abstract
This essay investigates the many ways in which Roth has exploited Freud's theories for fictional ends in the books from Portnoy's Complaint through Zuckerman Bound. It goes on to look at the apparent break with psychoanalysis that occurs in The Counterlife and suggests a parallel between that break and the psychotherapeutic approach of narrative therapy.
