The Stories of John Cheever (Pulitzer Prize Winner)

WINNER OF THE PULITZER PRIZE

“Profound and daring…. Some of the most wonderful stories any American has written.” —The Boston Globe

“John Cheever is an enchanted realist, and his voice, in his luminous short stories … is as rich and distinctive as any of the leading voices of postwar American literature.” —Philip Roth

“As stories go, as compellingly readable narratives of a certain sort of people in a certain time and place—our time and place—John Cheever’s stories are, simply, the best.” —The Washington Post

“A grand occasion in English literature.” —The New York Times

“Cheever’s crowning achievement is the ability to be simultaneously generous and cynical, to see that the absurd and the profound can reside in the same moment, and to acknowledge both at the detriment of neither.” —The Guardian
