A writer remembers …

… John Updike On Death, Writing And the Last Words - Flashbak. (Hat tip, Dave Lull.)

Updike saved almost everything. His papers, stored at Harvard, include his golf scorecards, legal and business records, fan mail, video tapes, photographs, drawings and rejection letters. Was saving and preserving the past done so we could remember him, and he could better remember himself, and try again?
