Exhibit 15.27

A man I jokingly considered my arch nemesis...

A man who has his own tag on this blog...

A man whose story was my favorite thing I read in my first fiction class...

A man whose worst novels were the only ones stocked at the Hays Public Library and whose best novels I hate on a level that must indicate some kind of success...

A man who outlived his main character by nearly 20 years...

A man who looks best in caricature...



John Updike, dead at 76.
