![]() Dale is also a friend of Verna a single mum, who lives in a rough part of town. Dale says he will achieve this by creating various mathematical models, on the campus computer (it’s the 1980s remember) with the aim of demonstrating some sort of intelligent design. This young fellow visits Roger one day to ask for his advice on how to apply for a study grant to run a project to prove the existence of God. Enter Dale Kohler, a smart-arse (my words) religious zealot who seems to have an impossibly vast intellect. He’s married to Estha – and it’s a stale,somewhat jaundiced marriage, his wife appears to like the material benefits and profile of being the wife of a senior academic, but she's not so keen on Roger, and is yearning for something else. Our narrator is Roger Lambert a Professor of Theology and a former Methodist Minister. ![]() Roger's Version by John Updike has been one of my most bizarre and finest reading experiences. ![]()
