This new collection of short stories by John Updike is concerned with a world of learning, of fumbling, of pausing and beginning again; a world lovingly seen and reverently felt… a wolrd whose harmonies demand new subtleties of fictional form. In The Music Scool, John Updike illuminates the aches and pains of modern society – the promblems of urban and suburban marriage-go-rounds, friendships, guilt, and innocence. And once again, we find ourselves caught by his unique vision of the world – spellbound by his power to observe the troubled human condition in all its nakedness.
