PENGUIN BOOKS RABBIT AT REST ‘Floating in a nimbus of greed and deceit, Harry ‘Rabbit’ Angstrom is America’s cloudy barometer (the needle always pointing to bad) and John Updike its lofty rain-maker ... This disjunction has always been one of the satisfactions of the Rabbit series: Harry, with his vulgarity, his crude simplicities, his clumsy yearning, placed and propelled by Updike’s rich prose, its elastic brilliance’ — James Wood in the Guardian ‘Poignant and excruciatingly funny ... this novel completes the most authoritative and most magical portrait yet written of the past four decades of American life’ — Time ‘As always, the great appeal is the sensuousness . And in Rabbit at Rest, a book often sombre and _ funereal, these reminders of life’s transient sensory ‚ largesse flicker out with particularly haunting power’ — Peter Kemp in the Sunday Times ‘Locked in a short circuit of prejudice, vulgarity and selfishness, Rabbit has not been a lovable creature, but he will, I suspect, be sorely missed. This junk-fuelled joyride through end-of-the-century America left me saddened and exhilarated. Updike is so far ahead of the field right now he barely needs to glance in the rear mirror’ — Anthony Quinn in the New Statesman 6 Society “It is the best novel about America to come out of America for a very, very long time ... Updike keeps the wheels of the plot going at full throttle ... but the story is there to enable the novel to do more important work; to create an epic, loving inventory of America as Rabbit has known it ... It must be read’ — Jonathan Raban in the Washington Post Book World
