Frank Conroythomas bellerThat iconic review was filled with the most positive and effusive praise for Updike, slashing remarks aside. The relevant writer here is a Frank Conroy, who gets it on the nose for “Lapis Lazuli,” in Supposedly Fun Thing. I should re-read Stop Time. So good. https://t.co/8FjuEUaQrX
