Rabbit Run is a beautifully written book. Updike has remarkable linguistic and descriptive skills, but the cynicism and despair become redundant. The overriding theme is narcissism, so "enjoy" is a strong term. Completely selfish and unable to empathize with any human, Rabbit is thoroughly unlikable. Is he aware of the destruction he leaves in his wake? Does he care? Do I?
