When John Updike died last week, I published only this short obituary from the AP. A lot more meaningful remembrances were published since—including one from John Irving and another from Updike’s New Yorker editor, Roger Angell.
Certainly worth reading is this article resurrected from the Christianity Today archives. In “Rabbit Trails to God,” the author refers to Updike as “if not a “Christian” novelist, certainly North America’s most theological one.”
