The Early Stories: 1953-1975

by John Updike

About this title: These 103 stories represent almost every one that John Updike wrote during the first half of his literary career--from 1953 to 1975. They are arranged chronologically--not by when they were written, but by the age of his protagonists: awkward adolescents to disaffected middle-aged suburbanites. A New York Times Notable Book for 2003.

Note: This is a general synopsis. Each listing is further described below.
