Updike remains both a critical and popular success; however,
because Updike asked that his personal letters not be published the
only way that Updike scholars and fans can read more of the
author's candid and insightful remarks is to revisit some of the
many interviews he granted-most of which are difficult to locate or
obtain. Updike wrote about his home town of Reading in Berks
County, Pennsylvania for much of his adult life, setting most of
his early fiction and all of his award-winning novels in his home
state. In John Updike's Pennsylvania Interviews, James Plath has
compiled the first collection of interviews that illustrates and
helps to explain the bond between one of America's greatest
literary talents and his beloved Pennsylvania. Included in this
volume are interviews and articles by Mark Abrams, Leonard W.
Boasberg, Carl W. Brown, Jr., David Cheshire, Marty Crisp, Sean
Diviny, John Mark Eberhart, William Ecenbarger, Elizabeth
Greenwood, Ruth Heimbuecher, Dorothy Lehman Hoerr, Jim Homan, Tom
Knapp, Karen L. Miller, Steve Neal, Richard E. Nicholls, Sanford
Pinsker, James Plath, Bruce Posten, Carole Reber, Pamela Rohland,
Carlin Romano, Daniel Rubin, Stephan Salisbury, Charles R. Shaw,
Ellen Sulkis, Heather Thomas, Stanley J. Watkins, Michael L.
Wentzel, and Robert F. Zissa.
