Praise
“Cheever’s triumph…. A great American novel.” —Newsweek
“One of the most important novels of our time…. Read it and be ennobled.” —The New York Times
“Falconer is splendid. It is rough, it is elegant, it is pure. It is also indispensable, if you earnestly desire to know what is happening to the human soul in the U.S.A.” —Saul Bellow
“One of our truly fine writers…. The novel proceeds directly on its course, taking the reader along with it…. Moving and excellent.” —The Washington Post
“John Cheever is an enchanted realist, and his voice … is as rich and distinctive as any of the leading voices of postwar American literature.” —Philip Roth
