March 18, 1932 – January 27, 2009
John Updike was one of the great writers of our time and while his novels will surely be missed, I'm really going to miss his passionate book reviews in the Times as well as his pieces in The New Yorker. Rabbit, Run is one of the all-time greatest novels, so if you haven't yet read it, now's the perfect time to add it to your Goodreads list.
