| adam_text | JOHN
UPDIKE
Twenty-six-year-old John Updike was already well
known as a contributor of stories and poems to The
Tievt7 Torher when, in January 1959, be published The
Foorhonse the first of four novels that mine bis
early life in small-town Pennsylvania. All four are
collected bere in tbis inaugural volume of* the
Library of America edition of Updike’s novels.
In an act of imaginative daring for such a young
writer* Updike took for his protagonist in The Foor-
hoztse Fair a spirited ninety-four-year-old former
schoolteacher now resident in a rural poorhouse.
Over the course of a single eventful day* John Hook
emerges as a philosophical opponent to Stephen
Conner, the facility’s officious young administrator,
who is convinced he has found in bureaucratic order
the sure path to his and others’ happiness.
The racy and provocative Rnbbity Rum (i960), one of
the 100 best modern novels published in English
according to Time magazine, introduces Updike’s
most enduring protagonist, Harry ccRabbit” Angstrom,
a onetime high school basketball star who, feeling
constrained by his middle-class life, leaves his pregnant
wife and two-year-old son. Rabbit’s decision to go ccon
the road” promises an escape from the countervailing
pressures of desire and duty, a chance to recapture
some missing magic, but at what price?
The Cen ter nr (19^3), winner of the National Book
Award for Fiction, is a contrasting companion piece to
Rnbbity R nny a study of a good and dutiful family man
and the spiritual cost of his self-sacrificing devotion.
The novel imagines the story of Chiron----the noblest
of the centaurs, who, grievously wounded yet unable
to die, gives up his immortality----retold as father-
son tragicomedy, unfolding in alternating chapters of
present-tense narrative and myth-saturated reminiscence.
The novella Of the Tctrm (1965) is one of
Updike’s loveliest performances, a chamber piece for
four voices: Joey Robinson, a thirty-five-year-old
Afanhattan advertising executive; his second wife,
Peggy; Her eleven-year-old son, Richard; and Joey’s
mother, a widow now living alone on the farm
where she was born and where Joey grew vrp. Over a
long autumn weekend at the farm, this quartet con-
fesses, argues, and apologizes, airs old grievances
and seeks new alliances. The novel plays variations on
the central theme of the works in this volume---the
challenge of being at once true to yourself and true
to those closest to you.
Rounding out this edition are seven nonfiction
pieces--introductions, speeches, and memoirs----that
elaborate upon the composition and themes of these
four novels.
