"If we don't ever manage to elect anybody," Bech lectures the group, "the institution will dwindle to nothing." Who would care? Not Bech's current mistress, Martina, who dismisses the Forty as "a bunch of mostly New York City has-beens electing themselves." Updike has one surprise for his beleaguered hero: the 1999 Nobel Prize for Literature.
