I'm most fond of his earlier books--Rabbit Run through about Rabbit Redux. After that he gets a bit too precious for me in his fiction. I do not like his light verse. Just too, well, light. On the other hand, I sill enjoy his work for the New Yorker these days, the book reviews and such. Best out of his whole bunch, in my opinion, is The Centaur. Deep, luscious prose. He writes prose the way he once praised Nabokov for writing--ecstatically!
