Book #1 in Updike's Rabbit trilogy. Books 2 and 3 were awarded the Pulitzer prize for Fiction.

Rabbit, Run is a finely textured, poetic story about a man trapped in his life. Updike's style is beautiful and the book is a joy to read. Rabbit's story is absorbing and crushing in its emotional weight. This is wonderful, personal American literature.
