Set in the tony suburbs of Westchester and Connecticut, Cheever’s classic stories charted a country as recognizable and essential to American literature as Faulkner’s or Hawthorne’s. “Many people have written about suburbia,” John Updike observed, “only Cheever was able to make an archetypal place out of it.” <I>Collected Stories and Other Writings</I> combines the entire Pulitzer Prize–winning collection, <I>The Stories of John Cheever</I>, with seven selections from his first book, <I>The Way Some People Live</I> (1943)—here restored to print—and seven additional stories first published in periodicals between 1930 and 1953. Included are masterpieces such as “The Enormous Radio,” “Goodbye, My Brother,” and “The Swimmer,” as well as lesser-known gems. Rounding out the volume are essays about writers and writing, including an appreciation of F. Scott Fitzgerald and an account of a visit to Chekhov’s house. A companion volume, <I>Complete Novels</I>, gathers Cheever’s five novels in one volume for the first time. 4396309 5 3 2009 John Cheever: Collected Stories and Other Writings total:20|5:10|4:7|3:2|2:1|1:0| 20 86 63 7 5 0 false false Wed Mar 18 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Wed Mar 18 06:05:26 -0700 2009 Wed Mar 18 06:06:04 -0700 2009 more...]]> 4 0 false false Sat Oct 10 09:46:09 -0700 2009 Sat Oct 10 09:49:09 -0700 2009 5 0 false false Sun Jun 07 18:55:21 -0700 2009 Sun Jun 07 18:56:31 -0700 2009 5 0 false false Thu Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Tue May 19 08:10:33 -0700 2009 Tue May 19 08:11:22 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Sat Sep 12 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Sat Sep 12 15:09:28 -0700 2009 Sun Oct 18 06:59:12 -0700 2009 more...]]> 5 0 false false Wed Jul 01 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Mon Sep 07 11:43:56 -0700 2009 Mon Sep 07 11:44:43 -0700 2009 5 0 false false Sun Aug 30 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Wed Jul 15 10:30:12 -0700 2009 Sun Aug 30 10:32:47 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Wed Nov 25 13:25:39 -0800 2009 Wed Nov 25 13:25:39 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Sat Nov 21 18:46:44 -0800 2009 Sat Nov 21 18:46:44 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Tue Nov 10 22:47:38 -0800 2009 Tue Nov 10 22:47:38 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Tue Nov 10 21:24:23 -0800 2009 Tue Nov 10 21:24:27 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Sun Nov 08 17:18:58 -0800 2009 Sun Nov 08 17:18:58 -0800 2009 5 0 false false Sat Oct 31 19:38:50 -0700 2009 Sat Oct 31 19:38:50 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Tue Oct 20 12:45:53 -0700 2009 Tue Oct 20 12:46:08 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Sat Oct 17 08:52:01 -0700 2009 Sat Oct 17 08:52:01 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Sun Oct 11 12:07:15 -0700 2009 Sun Oct 11 12:07:15 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Thu Oct 01 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Thu Oct 08 07:15:33 -0700 2009 Thu Oct 08 07:15:33 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Thu Oct 01 15:43:40 -0700 2009 Thu Oct 01 15:43:40 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Wed Sep 23 04:48:45 -0700 2009 Wed Sep 23 04:48:45 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Wed Sep 09 18:26:38 -0700 2009 Wed Sep 09 18:26:49 -0700 2009 http://www.goodreads.com/book_link/follow/8?book_id=4348374
