Brick City Bike Collective: Journey to Philip Roth’s house

Philip Roth, arguably America’s greatest living writer, grew up in the Weequahic neighborhood of Newark and wrote about it extensively in the Pulitzer Prize winning “American Pastoral”. His home at 81 Summit Street was the destination of today’s ride.

Newarkers biking Newark. So great, and a fantastic way to fight the dismal weather we’ve been having head-on.
