Rabbit Redux

In the sequel to John Updike's classic novel Rabbit, Run Harry "Rabbit" Angstrom's life has been turned upside down. Against the backdrop of the Summer of Love, Rabbit struggles to keep his family together and to keep up with the social changes sweeping America. His mother is dying; his wife has left him for another man; and a wealthy, runaway girl and a young, angry African-American Vietnam vet have become unexpected guests in his home. Boldly discussing race, class, and sex, Rabbit Redux is an extraordinary historical novel about the 1960s and a timeless portrait of one of the greatest protagonists in American literature.
