Read in September, 2011

A dozen short stories, plus one novella, all on the theme of love: adulterous love, familial love, nostalgic love, aging love. Updike’s skill lies in the beauty and intricacy of his sentences, which trace the subtleties of the human heart – he writes with passion and drive and a deep appreciation for women.
