Mr. Updike’s writings reflected a keen observation of the world he lived. The novels here (including 2 short stories) covered a period of upheaval from the late 60s to the early 70s in which he presented characters who struggled with an ever changing world and the consequences that followed. An interesting example of literature by Updike. ( ) geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

"The three essential John Updike novels collected here--the scandalous Couples, the second Rabbit book, Rabbit Redux, and the uproarious A month of Sundays--form an indelible triptych of the social upheaval that roiled America from the Kennedy to the Nixon years. Written with the grace, verve and style of one of American literature's most beguiling entertainers, these books reveal Updike's genius in characterization, his formal versatility as a novelist, and his surprising audacity. They delve into the complexities of sex and marriage, social class and personal morality, and the difficult quandaries of the flesh and the spirit. As a special feature the volume also presents two short pieces that shed light on the novels and the tale "Couples: A Short Story," the origin of the novel of the same name, written in 1963 but deemed unsuitable for publication by The New Yorker."-- Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |
