About Rabbit At Rest
<i><b>Rabbit</b>, now in his 50s and with a heart condition, is living in a condo in Florida. Nelson and his family come to stay and disaster unfolds. Rabbit has a serious heart attack after a boating accident with his granddaughter and Nelson has been embezzling the family firm to feed his cocaine habit.</i><p>We are in the final year of Ronald Reagan's anesthetized rule - ''<i>Everything falling apart, airplanes, bridges, eight years... of nobody minding the store, making money out of nothing, running up debt, trusting in God.''</i><br></p><p> In <b>John Updike’s</b> fourth and final novel about Harry “Rabbit” Angstrom, the hero has acquired a Florida condo, a second grandchild, and a troubled, overworked heart. His son, Nelson, is behaving erratically; his daughter-in-law, Pru, is sending him mixed signals; and his wife, Janice, decides in midlife to return to the world of work. As, through the year 1989, Reagan’s debt-ridden, AIDS-plagued America yields to that of the first George Bush, Rabbit explores the bleak terrain of late middle age, looking for reasons to live and opportunities to make peace with a remorselessly accumulating past.</p><p><i>"''Rabbit at Rest'' is certainly the most brooding, the most demanding, the most concentrated of John Updike's longer novels...It is a measure of John Updike's prescience in creating Rabbit Angstrom 30 years ago that, in the concluding pages of ''Rabbit, Run,'' Rabbit's ill-treated lover Ruth should speak of him in disgust as ''Mr. Death.'' If Mr Death is also, and enthusiastically, Uncle Sam, then the Rabbit quartet constitutes a powerful critique of America." </i> - <b>Joyce Carol Oates, The New York Times</b></p>
