Rabbit, Run (1960)
Growing sleepy, Rabbit stops before midnight at a roadside cafe
for coffee. Somehow, though he can't put his finger on the
difference, he is unlike the other customers...He had thought, he had
read that from shore to shore all America was the same. He wonders,
Is it just these people I'm outside, or is it all America?
Rabbit Redux (1971)
''I don't follow this racist rap. You can' t turn on television
now without some black face spitting at you. Everybody from Richard
Nixon down is sitting up nights trying to figure out how to make 'em
all rich without putting 'em to the trouble of doing any
work....They talk about genocide when they're the ones, the Negroes
plus the rich kids, who want to put it all down...''
Rabbit Is Rich (1981)
For the first time since childhood Rabbit is happy, simply, to be
alive...''I figure the oil's going to run out about the same time I
do, the year two thousand. Seems funny to say it, but I'm glad I
lived when I did. These kids coming up, they'll be living on table
scraps. We had the meal.''
Rabbit At Rest (1990)
Standing amid the tan, excited post-Christmas crowd at the
Southwest Florida Regional Airport, Rabbit Angstrom has a funny
feeling that what he come to meet, what's floating in unseen about to
land, is not his son Nelson and daughter-in-law Pru and their two
children but something more ominous and intimately his: his own
death, shaped vaguely like an airplane.
