Rabbit, Run and The Centaur

Thus far, the John Updike novels that I have read are Rabbit, Run and part of The Centaur.  I gave up after reading about a third of The Centaur because it was just so hard to read!  Rabbit, Run wasn't easy to read, either, and I honestly wasn't expecting Updike to be so challenging.  At times, his writing can be quite clear, crisp, and engaging, but at other times he can be about as difficult as James Joyce.  So, no more Updike for now.

Up next: Killers of the Flower Moon
