A sensational collection of stories of the American experience from the Depression to the aftermath of 9/11, by one of the most gifted American writers of the twentieth century and the author of the acclaimed Rabbit series.John Updike mingles narratives of Pennsylvania with stories of New England suburbia and of foreign travel:Personal Archaeology considers life as a sequence of halfburied layers, and The Full Glass distills a lifetimes happiness into one brimming moment of an old mans bedtime routine. Highschool class reunions, in The Walk with Elizanne and The Road Home, restore their hero to youths commonwealth where, as the narrator of the title story confides, the self I value is stored, however infrequently I check on its condition. Exotic locales encountered in the journeys of adulthood include Morocco, Florida, Spain, Italy, and India. The territory of childhood, with its fundamental, formative mysteries, is explored in The Guardians, The Laughter of the Gods, and Kinderszenen. Loves fumblings among the bourgeoisie yield the tart comedy of Free, Delicate Wives, The Apparition, and Outage.
