inspiration are suffering under the anxiety of influence. So are people who list him. Updike was so much better than, say, DFW as a stylist that it seems a touch absurd to even group them in the same profession.

The old WASP culture won't be surpassed; it will just be forgotten.

True, and he seems like a pretty shitty person, too, which makes his skill even more intolerable.

Hard for me to rate Cheever objectively, given he's to this day the patron Saint of MFA program closet cases. Still, oeuvre not really comparable.
