Publisher Notes
"It is, quite simply, Updike's best novel yet." NEWSWEEK A deftly satirical portrait of life and love in a suburban town as only Updike can paint it.
Media Reviews
"In the most sophisticated situation comedy imaginable, Updike achieves an absolutely hypnotic novel of sexual suspense in which a man and woman find their perfect love moves leave them checkmated....Not since 'Rabbit, Run', one of the finest novels of the past twenty years, has Updike written with such hard beauty of a man endlessly wandering the labyrinth of his own needs, irresistibly childlike in his faith in the magic of a woman, and abusively fearful of broken spells."
