Abstract
ABSTRACT:Philip Roth's The Human Stain (2000) intricately weaves together collective past alongside individual present, developing a cohesive understanding of trauma in the American identity. This paper draws on an interdisciplinary methodology informed by trauma theory in order to argue that The Human Stain is as invested in the individual history of Coleman Silk as it is in the collective trauma of the United States.
