Winner of the Pulitzer Prize, the Howells Medal, and the National Book Critics Circle Award
In John Updike's fourth and final novel about Harry "Rabbit" Angstrom, the hero has acquired a Florida condo, a second grandchild, and a troubled, overworked heart. His son, Nelson, is behaving erratically; his daughter-in-law, Pru, is sending him mixed signals; and his wife, Janice, decides in midlife to return to the world of work. As, through the year of 1989, Reagan's debt-ridden, AIDS-plagued America yields to that of the first George Bush, Rabbit explores the bleak terrain of late middle age, looking for reasons to live and opportunities to make peace with a remorselessly accumulating past.

Rabbit at Rest
[Rabbit and his daughter-in-law Pru have the sex. Yep. It just stretches the suspension of disbelief for me so much on BOTH sides, that the more I think about it, the more contrived it seems. It goes above and beyond fucked-upness that I can take. It also treads a weird quasi-incestual line that I can safely say I have OD'ed on this year in many books, and can definitely do without. Is this the best we can do, Pulitzer Prize Literary Gods? (hide spoiler)]
