John Updike Dies at 76

As good a prose stylist as there ever was.

“I would write ads for deodorants or labels for catsup bottle, if I had to,” Updike told The Paris Review in 1967. “The miracle of turning inklings into thoughts and thoughts into words and words into metal and print and ink never palls for me.”
