"A lacerating story of loss and of seeking, written in prose that is charged with emotion but is always held under impeccable control." -- Kansas City Star

Rabbit, Run is the book thatestablished John Updike as one of the major American novelists of his -- or any other -- generation. Its hero is Harry "Rabbit" Angstrom, a onetime high-school basketball star who on an impulse deserts his wife and son. He is twenty-six years old, a man-child caught in a struggle between instinct and thought, self and society, sexual gratification and family duty -- even, in a sense, human hard-heartedness and divine Grace. Though his flight from home traces a zigzag of evasion, he holds to the faith that he is on the right path, an invisible line toward his own salvation as straight as a ruler's edge.
