Blog of the Grateful Bear

ramblings of a freelance panentheist { "all things are in God, and God is in all things" } . . . musings on Emergent spirituality, contemplative prayer, mysticism, lost gospels, cats, music, healing, and more. I like my coffee and my existentialism dark-roasted. Drop me a line at gratefulbear @ comcast.net

Remembering John Updike


One of our greatest novelists, John Updike, passed away last week at the age of 76. I have read and enjoyed many of his novels, and I'm glad to have a signed, leather-bound edition of his novel The Witches of Eastwick in my collection of limited editions.

From Christianity Today: Updike was a deeply theological novelist.

Here's a remembrance from The New Yorker, the magazine for which Updike wrote for many years.
