Editorial Reviews:
Synopsis:

Here is trust betrayed--and fulfilled. Here are parents struggling to maintain that fragile claim on their offspring's childish awe. Here are husbands and wives as only Updike knows them. Here is life as we live it, in 22 stories of uncommon beauty and pathos from a master storyteller at the peak of his brilliant career.


Review:

"It is in his short stories that we find Updike's most assured work..., and almost without fail they give pleasure, a quality not to be taken lightly."

Washington Post Book World
