Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

"Bech is back all right, but only after paying a large and painful price. . . . Updike reflects in these pages on the odd and unsettling ways in which art can impinge upon life, the ways in which a book acquires a life of its own that seems wholly unrelated to that of the person who created it, the ways in which celebrity separates those upon whom it is bestowed from reality."--The Washington Post

"Mr. Updike finds full scope for his gifts here: for sly and cheerfully malicious pensées on contemporary literary life; for busy observations on human behavior."--The New Yorker

"[Updike] at the top of his craft."--Time

Reseña del editor:

Praised to the hilt by critics, a national best-seller follows fifty-year-old Jewish writer Henry Bech around the world, into marriage to an Episcopalian divorcee from New York, and back to the top thanks to his latest book. Reprint.
