Re: JCO: Re: Nobel for literature to be awarded Thursday, 10/13/2005

This goes WAY back in Updike's career; but I remember reading THE CENTAUR many years ago and being absolutely blown away by it.....and his short stories have always been remarkable.  My understanding is that he and JCO are close friends---I am sure either would be delighted if the other was awarded the prize, and even I would genuinely cheer Updike.
