About This Item
Synopsis
Taking its title from the "Battle Hymn of the Republic", IN THE BEAUTY OF THE LILIES traces one family's profound journey through four generations—and across the spiritual landscape of twentieth-century America. It is one of John Updike's fullest and finest work of fiction.
Reviews
Great book. Classic Updike: lush prose, piercing observations of both the physical world and the human psyche, great sex, and terribly interesting examinations of various religious impulses. A booklover's book!
