Patrimony is a true story about the relationship between a father and a son.

The son, full of love, anxiety and dread, accompanies his father through each fearful stage of his final ordeal, and, as he does so, discloses the survivalist tenacity that has distinguished his father's long engagement with life. Written with fierce tenderness, Patrimony is a classic work of memoir by a master storyteller. ©2016 Philip Roth (P)2023 Penguin Audio
