Rabbit, Run

''Rabbit, Run'' is a 1960 novel by John Updike. The novel depicts three months in the life of a 26-year-old former high school basketball player named Harry "Rabbit" Angstrom, who is trapped in a loveless marriage and a boring sales job, and attempts to escape the constraints of his life. It spawned several sequels, including ''Rabbit Redux'', ''Rabbit is Rich'' and ''Rabbit at Rest'', as well as a related 2001 novella, ''Rabbit Remembered''. In these novels, Updike takes a comical and retrospective look at the relentless questing life of Rabbit against the background of the major events of the latter half of the 20th century.
