Date of Review:  Jan 26, 2000
Review: A star high school basketball player, eight years after graduation, plays a back-alley pickup game with some kids. The years have not been kind to him, but he's still got the hoop dreams:

"He sinks shots one-handed, two-handed, underhanded,...

Rabbit, Run

Date of Review:  Nov 9, 2004
The Bottom Line: Updike has shown himself to be a master of character creation, and Rabbit Angstrom is his very best creation. Amazing.
Review: Harry 'Rabbit' Angstrom was once king of the high school world, a star basketball player, tall and handsome, and able to get the girls. Now, several years on, he is married, frustrated and unsure as to how it all ended up this way. One day, arriving...

Professional Reviews

  Nation: "Carefully written and literary in the sense that it is a story which has been told and retold a dozen times....It is that kind of work in which the ingredients (including three ounces of earthly dialogue and a heaping big spoonful of compassion) are consciously added as though preparing a small stew, and the canisters from which they are drawn are the past works of a hundred hands."
