Product Description

The first onevolume hardcover edition of the eleven autobiographical stories that were closest to Updikes heart. With fullcloth binding and a silk ribbon marker. EVERYMANS POCKET CLASSICS. In an interview Updike once said If I had to give anybody one book of me it would be the Olinger Stories. These stories were originally published in The New Yorker and then in various collections before Vintage first put them together in one volume in 1964 as a paperback original. They follow the life of one character from the age of ten through manhood in the small Pennsylvania town of Olinger pronounced according to Updike with a long O and a hard G which was loosely based on Updikes own hometown. All the stories draw from the same autobiographical well Updike explained the only child the small town the grandparental home the move in adolescence to a farm. The selection was made and arranged by Updike himself and was prefaced by a lovely 1400word essay by the author that has never been reprinted in full elsewhere until now.
