Operation Shylock: A Confession is a 1993 novel by American novelist Philip Roth. The novel is presented as a first-person narrative by the author, following him on a trip to Israel and describing how he undertook the titular "operation" for the Israeli intelligence service.

Deliberately blurring the boundaries between fact and fiction, the novel explores themes on the nature of the self, Jewish identity in Israel and the diaspora, and the relationship of an author to their work.
