This is a grand collection of John Updike's inimitable early stories. Gathering together almost all the short fiction that John Updike published between 1953 and 1975, this collection opens with Updike's autobiographical stories about a young boy growing up during the Depression in a small Pennsylvania town. There follows tales of life away from home, student days, early marriage and young families, and finally Updike's experimental stories on 'The Single Life'. Here, then, is a rich and satisfying feast of Updike - his wit, his easy mastery of language, his genius for recalling the subtleties of ordinary life and the excitements, and perils, of the pursuit of happiness.

约翰•厄普代克(John Updike,1932.3.18—2009.1.27),集小说家、诗人、剧作家、散文家和评论家于一身的美国当代文学大师,作品两获普利策奖和国家图书奖,获得欧•亨利奖等其他众多奖项多达十数次。“性爱、宗教和艺术”是厄普代克毕生追求的创作标的,“美国人、基督徒、小城镇和中产阶级”则是厄普代克独擅胜场的创作主题,他由此成为当之无愧的美国当代中产阶级的灵魂画师,被誉为“美国的巴尔扎克”。

前言: 这是一本短篇小说合集。如果要出选集,恐怕等作者不再活着来杯葛此事的时候,想必最好还是留给别人去做。任何小说,从最初的匆匆涂鸦进入到印刷品的安全港湾,在作家本人看来,都具有某种勇气,以我的本性,甚至在四十年后,对这些小说不是将其扔弃,而是不断打磨和重新... (展开)
