Produktbeschreibung
Updike depicts the main themes of love, marriage, divorce, remarriage, disability of making decisions and uncertainty of the hero and heroine, family problems, children matters, as well as adultery in Marry Me and elaborates on them as a pathologist in order to give the reader a photographic picture of contemporary America and American society within the frame of Postmodern Romance. He re-contextualizes the conventional romances and its attributes and situates them in a new social atmosphere in order to criticize the disintegration of family, the smallest unit of social structure at present. And in this aesthetic manner, the postmodern ethic of love is once more revalued. The ethical values of Love and marriage blended with a sense of mock make the novel of Mary Me a true representation of social aura of the last three decades in America.
