The book of this evening is Indignation by Philip Roth
The year is 1951, and Marcus Messner is the brilliant but overprotected son of lower-middle-class Jewish parents in Newark, N.J. - in this case, a second-generation kosher butcher and his wife. Marcus makes straight A's at the local college, helps out in the store and, increasingly, chafes at a father whose overwhelming preoccupation with his gifted only child's welfare and physical safety seems to be moving from the merely obsessive to the genuinely pathological.
