9. Reading Updike
– Knock, knock!
– Who’s there?
– It’s the man you like to hate.
– All right, my hateful man, come in. What’s up?
– Not much. What are you doing? Reading? Are you all right?
– Yes, I am reading. It’s Updike…
– Updike? John Hoyer Updike? Son of Linda Grace (Hoyer) Updike
and Wesley Russell Updike?
Born in Reading, Pennsylvania, in nineteen thirty-two?
Graduated from Harvard College in nineteen fifty-four?
The famous novelist, essayist, critic, and overall refined intellectual? The cult author?
The Updike!?
– Oh, stop it! You think that if I liked “Cut, Gut and Lots of Blood”, I can’t read Updike?
I can, and I do! And, I enjoy doing it very much! There!
