"Too Far To Go" is a collection of short stories by the American author John Updike published in 1979 and later made into a two-hour television movie on the NBC network with Blythe Danner, Kathryn Walker and Michael Moriarty. The linked stories focus upon the marriage and eventual divorce of Richard and Joan Maple and depict a 1960's New England milieu prototypical of much of Updike's fiction. Many of the stories were initially published as occasional pieces in "The New Yorker" from the mid-1950s to the mid-1970s before Updike assembled them for publication as an anthology.

The stories include:

* Snowing in Greenwich Village
* Wife-wooing
* Giving Blood
* Twin Beds in Rome
* Marching Through Boston
* The Taste of Metal
* Your Lover Just Called
* Waiting Up
* Eros Rampant
* Plumbing
* The Red-Herring Theory
* Sublimating
* Nakedness
* Separating
* Gesturing
* Divorcing: A Fragment
* Here Come the Maples

The story "Your Lover Just Called" was later adapted into a playlet by Updike himself. It is included in his collection "More Matter" (1999)
