– 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’m 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! http://vk.com/club70961925
