ôDrinking a toast to the visible world, his impending disappearance from it be damned.ö ThatÆs how John Updike describes one of his elderly protagonists in this, his final collection of short stories. He might have been writing about himself. In My FatherÆs Tears, the author revisits his signature characters, places, and themesùAmericans in suburbs, cities, and small towns grappling with faith and infidelityùin a gallery of portraits of his aging generation, men and women for whom making peace with the past is now paramount. The Seattle Times called My FatherÆs Tears ôa haunting collectionö that ôechoes the melancholy of Chekhov, the romanticism of Wordsworth and the mournful spirit of Yeats.ö
