Rabbit Redux
By John Updike
# 2 in Rabbit Angstrom

“Rabbit “Angstrom, failed hero of Rabbit Run, is back.
He has changed, as America has changed in the intervening ten years, somewhat for the worse.
His marriage is collapsing, his job is becoming redundant and the urgency of racial tension and the conflict of the generations present a challenge neither his conscience nor his sexuality can resist.
In the end, after confrontation and despair, betrayal and tragedy, ‘Rabbit’ achieves a kind of resolution, a kind of peace.
The peace of exhaustion, perhaps.
This is Updike at his brilliant and unique best.
