Myth and Gospel in the Fiction of John Updike

Arts & Literature

“John McTavish's book is a result of the long time reading of Updike's works from a specific perspective--their relation to myth and Christianity. The structure of the book is mosaic-like as it also contains works of some other authors on Updike, which makes the discussion dynamic. I recommend this book warmly to all readers interested in Updike, because it will help them understand the profound religious and philosophical dilemmas that permeate his oeuvre.”
