Philip Roth "Portnoy's Complaint" (1969). Зачем? Все от упрямства и иррациональности: нет бы бросить на середине. Зато:
Look, why not spare us religion, if only in the name of our human dignity! Good Christ, Mother, the whole world knows already, so why don't you? Religion is the opiate of the people! And if believing that makes me a fourteen-year old Communist, then that's what I am, and I'm proud of it! I would rather be a Communist in Russia than a Jew in a synagogue any day—so I tell my father right to his face too.Знакомо!!! Только с точностью до наоборот. Мир мал и кругл.
