RABBIT, RUN

"Brilliant and poignant . . . By his compassion, clarity of insight, and crystal-bright prose, [Updike] makes Rabbit's sorrow his and out own.
The Washington Post

"Precise, graceful, stunning, he is an athlete of words and images. He is also an impeccable observer of thoughts and feelings."
The Village Voice


RABBIT REDUX

"Great in love, in art, boldness, freedom, wisdom, kindness, exceedingly rich in intelligence, wit, imagination, and feeling -- a great and beautiful thing . . . these hyperboles (quoted from a letter written long ago by Thomas Mann) come to mind after reading John Updike's Rabbit Redux.
The New York Times Book Review


"Updike owns a rare verbal genius, a gifted intelligence and a sense of tragedy made bearable by wit. . . . A masterpiece.
