I have read this huge volume twice now, and look forward to reading it again in the future. Best writer of the English language!

I miss Mr. Updike so much. I remember when I finished Rabbit At Rest I began sobbing uncontrollably. In the four books I had been through so much with Harry Angstrom, and I believe that Mr. Updike's catharsis was transferred to me the reader. No work of art has affected me as deeply as the Rabbit tetralogy.

This man should've won the Nobel prize.

Pulitzer Prize winning ARTHUR John Updike!

What a writer. What an original mind.

I love Updike. Every one of his novels is a slam dunk for me.

My favorite writer of all time.

I really really liked Skeeter in "Rabbit Redux". Totally insane.

Wonderful.

Glad to hear he most enjoyed writing 'Rabbit is Rich'!

I'm behind, just started reading his work. I like.

A great American writer ✨✨✨💫

i just want to collapse listening to Updike in this interview. while his prose is unique and astonishing in style, it might be hard - for me - to put him in timeless writers. however, his enormous kindness and work for writers of his time and his caring beyond just himself ... well, so yes, he will never be rightly forgotten nor denied his place in the history of English literature. an extremely kind kind man. incredibly ... politics is mentioned here. he supports Bill Clinton as president ... all politics aside, Clinton was estimated to have the highest I.Q. of all past presidents. i think that estimate was correct. i DO believe in intelligence, but i largely characterize good intelligence as " spiritual " intelligence.

Does he ever talk about The Widow? A series of questions and answers... nobody seems to know about it...

Goddamn

He should have stopped after Rabbit At Rest and finished on a career high. Why don’t Yanks let people speak when they conduct interviews?

who is the interviewer: brilliant!

I have just finished "Run, Rabbit, run" and I want to ask if I'm the only one who deeply hates Harry Angstrom

I miss Charlie.

Rose is a terrible interviewer. I've seen kids on RU-vid better at the craft

rabbit, run was trash
