Descriere magazin:
n nUpdike is
Adam Begley\'s masterful, much-anticipated biography of one of the most celebrated figures in American literature: Pulitzer Prize-winning author John
Updike--a candid, intimate, and richly detailed look at his life and work.n nIn this magisterial biography,
Adam Begley offers an illuminating portrait of John
Updike, the acclaimed novelist, poet, short-story writer, and critic who saw himself as a literary spy in small-town and suburban America, who dedicated himself to the task of transcribing middleness with all its grits, bumps and anonymities.n nUpdike explores the stages of the writer\'s pilgrim\'s progress: his beloved home turf of Berks County, Pennsylvania; his escape to Harvard; his brief, busy working life as the golden boy at The New Yorker; his family years in suburban Ipswich, Massachusetts; his extensive travel abroad; and his retreat to another Massachusetts town, Beverly Farms, where he remained until his death in 2009. Drawing from in-depth research as well as interviews with the writer\'s colleagues, friends, and family,
Begley explores how
Updike\'s fiction was shaped by his tumultuous personal life--including his enduring religious faith, his two marriages, and his first-hand experience of the adulterous society he was credited with exposing in the bestselling Couples.n nWith a sharp critical sensibility that lends depth and originality to his analysis, Begley probes Updike\'s best-loved works--from Pigeon Feathers to The Witches of Eastwick to the Rabbit tetralogy--and reveals a surprising and deeply complex character fraught with contradictions: a kind man with a vicious wit, a gregarious charmer who was ruthlessly competitive, a private person compelled to spill his secrets on the printed page. Updike offers an admiring yet balanced look at this national treasure, a master whose writing continues to resonate like no one else\'s.n
