IAN McEWEN ON JOHN UPDIKE - A TRIBUTE

this Updike tribute by Ian McEwen in the latest NY Review of Books is terrific. He leaves the best lines to Updike, and there's a lovely ending.

There's also an excellent, thorough review by Hilton Als of the film 'Milk' in the same issue.

My thanks to music historian/biographer Chris Bourke for bringing the above to my notice.
