Hardcover. Zustand: new. Hardcover. From his first collection, The Same Door, released in 1959, to his last, My Fathers Tears, published fifty years later, John Updike was Americas reigning master of the short story, our second Hawthorne, as Philip Roth described him. His evocations of small-town Pennsylvania life, and of his own religious, artistic, and sexual awakening, transfixed readers of The New Yorker and of the early collections Pigeon Feathers (1962) and The Music School (1966). In these and the works that followedthe formal experiments and wickedly tart tales of suburban adultery in Museums and Women (1972) and Problems (1979), the portraits of middle-aged couples in love and at war with aging parents and rebellious children in Trust Me (1987) and The Afterlife (1994), and the fugue-like stories of memory, desire, travel, and unquenched thirst for life in Licks of Love (2000) and My Fathers Tears (2009)Updike displayed the virtuosic command of character, dialogue, and sensual description that was his signature. Here, in two career-spanning volumes, are 186 unforgettable stories, from Ace in the Hole (1953), a sketch of a Rabbit-like ex-basketball player written when Updike was a Harvard senior, to The Full Glass (2008), the authors toast to the visible world, his own impending disappearance from it be damned. Based on new archival research, each story is presented in its final definitive form and in order of composition, established here for the first time. This unprecedented collection of American masterpieces is not just the publishing event of the season, it is a national literary treasure.LIBRARY OF AMERICA is an independent nonprofit cultural organization founded in 1979 to preserve our nations literary heritage by publishing, and keeping permanently in print, Americas best and most significant writing. The Library of America series includes more than 300 volumes to date, authoritative editions that average 1,000 pages in length, feature cloth covers, sewn bindings, and ribbon markers, and are printed on premium acid-free paper that will last for centuries.

Autor: eboren am 18.03.1932 in der Kleinstadt Shillington, Pennsylvania, als einziges Kind des Sekundarschullehrers und Diakon Wesley Russel Updike und dessen Frau Linda Grace Hoyer. Kindheit in materieller Bedrücktheit. Schulbesuch weiterhin in Shillington. 1950 Stipendium zum Studium am Harvard College, Hauptfach Anglistik; Abschluss des Untergraduiertenstudiums 1954 mit summa cum laude. Er heiratete 1953 die Kunststudentin Mary Entwistle Pennington, mit der er nach Abschluss des Studiums ein Jahr an die Ruskin School of Drawing and Fine Art in Oxford, England, ging. Nach Rückkehr in die USA von 1955-1957 fest angestellt beim Magazin «The New Yorker». Danach verfasste er als freier Mitarbeiter Kurzgeschichten und einflussreiche literarische Kritiken. 1957 Umzug nach Ipswich im neuenglischen Massachusetts. 1964 Vortragsreisen durch die UdSSR, Rumänien, Bulgarien und die Tschechoslowakei. Seit 1964 war Updike Mitglied des National Institute of Arts and Letters. 1973 Fulbright-Lektor in Afrika. 1976 Mitglied der American Academy of Arts and Letters. Auszeichnungen: Guggenheim Fellowship in Poetry für «The Carpendered Hen and Other Tame Creatures» (1959); Rosenthal Foundation Award des National Institute of Arts and Letters für «Das Fest am Abend» (1960); Pulitzer Price for Fiction für «Bessere Verhältnisse» (1982); Lincoln Literary Award (1983); Distinguished Pennsylvania Artist Award (1983); National Book Critics Circle Award for Criticism für «Amerikaner und andere Menschen» (1984); St. Louis Literary Award (1988); Bobst Award for Fiction (1988); National Medal of Arts (1989); Premio Scanno (1991); O'Henry Award für «A Sandstone Farmhouse» aus «The Afterlife and Other Stories» (1991); Common Wealth Award (1993); Conch Republic Prize for Literature (1993) Commandeur de l'ordre des arts et des lettres (1995); The Howells Medal from the Academy of Arts and Letters (1995). John Updike starb am 27. Januar 2009 in Massachusetts. Sein gesamtes Werk ist auf Deutsch im Rowohlt Verlag und im Rowohlt Taschenbuch Verlag erschienen. Three years later, the premature passing of John Updike still grieves me, but this beautiful set lifted my emotions once again. As great as Updike's best novels were, to my mind, he was truly at his most consistent best in the short story medium. This volume contains all of his published stories, as well as a few rarities/variants, and is the first to be arranged chronologically by date of publication. As much as he did in the Rabbit tetrology, in his short fiction Updike seems to capture the full range of pleasures, contradictions, and deeply felt passions of the American middle class (and more often upper middle suburban), as its warriors, lovers, and often warring-lovers negotiated the shoals of married life from the era of Dwight and Mamie Eisenhower, through the era of the Clintons. Since Updike's work is clearly self-recommending, I need not say more, except to those who know him mostly through the Rabbit books: the short stories offer Updike at his most delicious -- and precise -- best.
