โœฆ Synopsis


Review

""Marry Me" is superb, sharp, witty, perceptive, honest. . . . With keen intelligence, Updike has cut a slice of life the width of one town, the height of one feverish summer, the depth of four people trying to understand why their center does not hold--and turned it into a mirror of our modern popular wisdom."--"Chicago Daily News"

"Updike's most mature work . . . His writing has deepened, grown wiser and funnier, like a face that is aging well.""--The Atlantic"

"It is, quite simply, Updike's best novel yet.""--Newsweek"
