约翰•厄普代克(John Updike,1932.3.18—2009.1.27),集小说家、诗人、剧作家、散文家和评论家于一身的美国当代文学大师,作品两获普利策奖和国家图书奖,获得欧•亨利奖等其他众多奖项多达十数次。“性爱、宗教和艺术”是厄普代克毕生追求的创作标的,“美国人、基督徒、小城镇和中产阶级”则是厄普代克独擅胜场的创作主题,他由此成为当之无愧的美国当代中产阶级的灵魂画师,被誉为“美国的巴尔扎克”。

John Updike has created a body of work in the notoriously difficult form of the short story to set beside those of these distinguished American predecessors. Congratulations and heartfelt thanks are due to John Updike for having brought such pleasure and such illumination to so many readers for so many years.”
“但幸福何曾充当过小说的主题?对幸福的追求仅仅是——一种追求而已。死神和它的助手从每笔交易中都要抽税。已经拥有的东西会被贪求的东西贬值。不满,冲突,毁灭,忧伤,恐惧——这些才是值得关注、无法回避的主题。” ——约翰•厄普代克 论起美国当代最会写的作家是谁,...
