Big on style, slight on substance: that has been a common charge
over the years by critics of John Updike. In fact, however, John
Updike is one of the most serious writers of modern times. Myth, as
Myth and Gospel in the Fiction of John Updike shows, unlocks his
fictional universe and repeatedly breaks open the powerful themes
in his literary parables of the gospel. This book also includes a
personal tribute to John Updike by his son David, essays by pioneer
Updike scholars Alice and Kenneth Hamilton, and an anecdotal
chapter in which readers share Updike discoveries and
recommendations. All in all, weight is added to the complaint that
the master of myth and gospel was shortchanged by the Nobel
committee.
