Synopsis
In this sequel to Rabbit, Run, John Updike resumes the spiritual quest of his anxious Everyman, Harry "Rabbit" Angstrom. Ten years have passed; the impulsive former athlete has become a paunchy thirty-six-year-old conservative, and Eisenhower's becalmed America has become 1969's lurid turmoil of technology, fantasy, drugs, and violence. Rabbit is abandoned by his family, his home invaded by a runaway and a radical, his past reduced to a ruined inner landscape; still he clings to semblances of decency and responsibility, and yearns to belong and to believe.

    Although this book was not as described, with no picture of it in the listing, the seller communicated well and quickly gave me a full refund while letting me keep it. The minimal packaging left the book a bit vulnerable (typical for ThriftBooks), but it did arrive safely and timely. As usual, it’s hit or miss with this seller, but often times you can get great values, and their customer service is always very good. Many other sellers with millions of transactions don’t even communicate.

    I've ordered several items from this vendor now and they've always been what they were advertised as. This was no exception. Both discs were in great shape as well as their jewel cases. Delivery is good, packaging is simple but effective for what you're paying and I haven't had any get damaged. Will keep buying from this vendor because of the results so far and good prices, too.

  • Excellent small town, young couple marriage and the ups and downs of same.

    Part 2 of a trilogy written by John Updike outlining the story of a young man and his wife in the 1950's. I am re-reading it as I enjoyed it so much when I was younger. Updike is an exceptionally fine writer. As you may recall, he wrote The Witches of Eastwick, which in turn became a major motion picture starring Cher and Jack Nicholson. The couple in this book suffers through the trial by fire a young marriage in a small town is during this time period, and probably universally. Updike is particularly good at getting into his character's head. I think you will like it.
