rating:
recommended for: someone not in a rush...
a good book by an author with a fairly unique voice.
i have only read this, the last of four books in the rabbit series by updike. he captures what would be an uneventful and otherwise normal life of the aging everyman in america from an insiders point of view.
not necessarily a happy read or uplifting, but read slowly it delivers some lessons worth exploring.
updike describes his characters and their thoughts with language usually reserved for lush landscapes. read with patience, these are the best parts of his book.
