SYNOPSIS
The Jewish American novelist Henry Bech—procrastinating, libidinous, and tart-tongued, his reputation growing while his powers decline—made his first appearance in 1965, in John Updike’s "The Bulgarian Poetess." That story won the O. Henry First Prize, and it and the six Bech adventures that followed make up this collection. "Bech is the writer in me," Updike once said, "creaking but lusty, battered but undiscourageable, fed on the blood of ink and the bread of white paper." As he trots the globe, promotes himself, and lurches from one woman’s bed to another’s, Bech views life with a blend of wonder and cynicism that will make followers of the lit-biz smile with delight and wince in recognition.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
John Updike
John Updike nasceu em 1932 em Shillington, na Pensilvânia.
Licenciou-se na Universidade de Harvard em 1954. Trabalhou no The New Yorker nos anos 50, onde publicou poemas, contos, ensaios e recensões. Updike viveu em New England, cenário da maior parte
dos seus livros, e em Massachusetts, onde faleceu a 27 de Janeiro de 2009, vitima de um cancro pulmonar. Teve quatro
filhos.
Foi autor de uma obra extensa, que abrange romances, colectâneas
de poesia, contos, ensaios e até mesmo crítica literária sobre
alguns dos melhores escritores contemporâneos.
Updike observou o quotidiano que o rodeava e frequentemente levava o
leitor a reconhecer e a questionar ideias preconcebidas. Desde o
início da sua carreira que as questões existenciais estiveram no
âmago da sua obra.
