    <![CDATA[ Bisher war Janice es eigentlich gewohnt, ihre Töchter und nahen Verwandten immer wieder einmal zu verlieren. Erst war es Becky und dann Teresa, die nach über 20 Jahren Janices Sohn Nelson verließ. Und nun schottet sich auch noch ihr 19-jähriges Enkelkind Judy hinter einer Wand aus Walkman-Klängen von ihr ab. Aber dann steht plötzlich eine Frau vor der Tür, die sie noch nie gesehen hat, ihr aber merkwürdigerweise irgendwie bekannt vorkommt, und behauptet, die uneheliche Tochter von Janice' verstorbenem Ehemann Harry &quot;Rabbit&quot; Angstrom zu sein. Kein Wunder also, dass Janice sich später beim Bridge nicht konzentrieren kann. &quot;Harry, Harry, er war ein Problem&quot;, heißt es im Roman <em>Rabbit. Eine Rückkehr</em> von John Updike: &quot;Immer hat er so ein Durcheinander angerichtet und nie hinter sich aufgeräumt, auch jetzt, zehn Jahre nach seinem Tod, überlässt er das den Lebenden&quot;.<p>  Ein Problem scheint Harry Angstrom tatsächlich immer noch zu sein: für seine wenig aufgeräumte Witwe Janice und ihren neuen Mann und ehemaligen Rabbit-Rivalen Ronnie besonders. Deshalb sind beide wenig begeistert, als die verlorene Tochter Annabelle plötzlich vor ihrer Türe steht. Nur Nelson ist sehr angetan von der 39-jährigen Krankenschwester, mit der er sich nach einem ersten, verschüchterten Date in einem Schnellrestaurant blendend über seine Arbeit als Therapeut -- und über seinen Vater -- unterhalten kann. Denn Rabbit ist allgegenwärtig in den Gesprächen der Figuren, und irgendwie, als Auslöser eines Streits zum Thanksgiving-Diner, schafft er es dann sogar, dass Nelson sich von seinen allzu eng gewordenen Familienbanden etwas emanzipieren kann.<p>  Fans der grandiosen Rabbit-Romane <em>Hasenherz</em>, <em>Unter dem Astronautenmond</em>, <em>Bessere Verhältnisse</em> oder <em>Rabbit in Ruhe</em> werden sich über das unverhoffte, indirekte Wiedersehen mit dem am Ende der Tetralogie arg verfetteten Familientyrannen Harry Angstrom freuen. Für alle anderen hat Updike wieder einmal einen fulminanten Kurzroman vorgelegt, der tief hineinleuchtet in die US-amerikanische, von Doppelmoral geprägte Familienseele. <em>--Thomas Köster</em></p></p>]]>

    <![CDATA[Couples is the book that has been assailed for its complete frankness and praised as an artful, seductive, savagely graphic portrait of love, marriage, and adultery in America. But be it damned or hailed, Couples drew back the curtain forever on sex in suburbia in the late twentieth century. A classic, it is one of those books that will be read -- and remembered -- for a long time to come.]]>

    <![CDATA[Borrowing a phrase from <em>Hamlet</em> for the title of his 1999 nonfiction collection, John Updike may perhaps have been dropping hints about his fictional work in progress. He has, in any case, now delivered <em>Gertrude and Claudius</em>--and his variation on what is arguably the Bard's greatest hit sits very handsomely in the Shakespearean shadows. As its title suggests, this is a prelude to the actual play, focusing not on the sulky star but on his mother and fratricidal stepfather (think of it as a Danish, death-struck version of <em>The Parent Trap</em>). Updike's great achievement here is to turn our customary sympathies on their heads. This time around, Gertrude is a decent, long-suffering wife, whose consciousness happens to be raised to the boiling point by her sexy brother-in-law. And Claudius, too, seems half a victim of this fatal attraction, with a strong neo-Platonic accent to his lust: <blockquote> The amused play of her mouth and eyes, the casual music of her considerate voice, a glimpse of her bare feet and rosy morning languor were to him amorous nutrition enough: at this delicate stage the image of more would have revolted him.... What we love, he understood from the poetry of Provence, where his restless freelancing had more than once taken him, is less the gift bestowed, the moon-mottled nakedness and wet-socketed submission, than the Heavenly graciousness of bestowal. </blockquote> Subtract the poetry (and leave in the wet-socket business) and we're not too far from Rabbit Angstrom. As in the bulk of his fiction--and most conspicuously in the underrated <em>In the Beauty of the Lilies</em>--Updike sacrifices artistic firepower when he goes archaic on us. That explains why <em>Gertrude and Claudius</em> gets off to a wobbly start, with the author's medieval diction careening all over the page. But once his narrative gets up to speed, Updike dispenses one brilliant bit of perception after another. Note, for example, Ophelia's teeth, &quot;given an almost infantile roundness by her low, palely pink gums, and tilted very slightly inward, so her smile imparted a glimmering impression of coyness, with even something light-heartedly wanton about it.&quot; Who else could make mere dentition such a window into the soul? <p> <em>Gertrude and Claudius</em> also amounts to a running theological argument, in which men constantly impale themselves on metaphysical principle while the adulterous queen is willing &quot;to accept the world at face value, as a miracle daily renewed.&quot; (That would explain Gertrude's snap diagnosis of her neurotic son: &quot;Too much German philosophy.&quot;) A superlative satellite to Shakespeare's creation, Updike's novel is likely to retain a kind of subordinate rank, even within his own capacious body of work. Still, it's packed with enough post-Elizabethan insight about men and women, parents and children, to suggest that the play's <em>not</em> the thing--not always, anyway. <em>--James Marcus</em></p>]]>

    <![CDATA[ <em>Sucht mein Angesicht</em> mutet an wie ein Buch über die Kunst des Zwanzigsten Jahrhunderts -- zunächst. Der Roman erzählt vom Leben der Malerin Hope, &quot;Fußnote&quot; in der Geschichte ihrer Männer. Da ist der Macho Zack (er malt in großen &quot;Spritzern&quot;), der bisexuelle Guy (schlaffe &quot;Tröpfeleien&quot;) und Jerry, der farblose Gallerist.  <p> Kathryn, die junge hübsche &quot;New Yorker Besserwisserin&quot;, stellt ihr Aufnahmegerät an und interviewt Hope -- damit beginnt der Roman. Er hört damit auf, dass Kathryn am Ende des gleichen Tages nach Hause fährt. Das Interview deckt die Spanne eines halben Jahrhunderts ab. Dieser Wechsel zwischen erzählter, überbordender Geschichte und unmittelbarem, intensivem Erleben des Augenblicks (Hopes &quot;Beziehung&quot; zur jungen Kathryn) macht das Buch wunderbar lebendig. <p> Für den Laien (wie den Rezensenten) startet der Roman allerdings mit einer Durststrecke: Die seitenlangen Auslassungen über Kunst erfordern etwas Durchhaltevermögen. (Nur der Profi entdeckt in der Figur Zack den Maler Jackson Pollock und in Guy eine Melange diverser Pop-Art-Größen, darunter Andy Warhol.) Doch das Lesen wird belohnt. Bei aller Liebe Updikes für die Kunst der Zeit, in der er aufgewachsen ist, macht er bald deutlich: Dahinter steckt immer ein Mensch! Dieses Menschengeflecht (Hope, ihre drei Ehemänner, die Kinder und nicht zuletzt die Interviewerin Kathryn) ist das Herzstück, die Lebensader dieses virtuosen Romans, der Sehnsüchte, Liebe und Enttäuschungen wie ein gelungenes Bild unmittelbar fühlbar macht.<p> <em>Sucht mein Angesicht</em> hat alle Zutaten, die einen guten Updike ausmachen: Sinn und Sinnlichkeit, Mann und Frau, Lieben und Leben, Erfüllung und die immerwährende Suche danach. Eins kann ohne das andere nicht sein -- das macht unser Leben so spannend, und das macht Updikes Bücher so lesenwert. <p> Ein wichtiger Punkt zum Schluss: <em>Sucht mein Angesicht</em> ist hervorragend übersetzt. Wunderbar lesbar, mit einem guten Gespür sowohl für Sprache als auch für Updikes Intentionen verleiht Maria Carlsson dem Roman die angemessene Leichtigkeit und Gewichtigkeit, die er verdient. <em>--Dirk Ruschepaul</em></p></p></p></p>]]>

    <![CDATA[ Wieviel Glück kann ein Verleger haben? Der legendäre Verleger des <em>New Yorker</em>, William Shawn, suchte einen Schriftsteller, der ein Buch über Golf rezensieren sollte -- und wendete sich an den Romanschriftsteller John Updike. Updike, der ein begeisterter Golfspieler ist, nahm den Auftrag erfreut an. <em>Golfträume</em> enthält unter anderem die Rezension von Michael Murphys <em>Golf in the Kingdom</em> -- aber auch Kurzgeschichten aus <em>Golf Digest</em>, <em>The New York Times Book Review</em> und anderen Publikationen. Auszüge aus Updikes klassischen Romanen wie z.B. &quot;Three Rounds With Rabbit Angstrom&quot; runden die Sammlung der 30 Geschichten ab.]]>
