Cheever
Cheever | Blake Bailey
1 post | 2 read | 3 to read
John Cheever spent much of his career impersonating a perfect suburban gentleman, the better to become one of the foremost chroniclers of postwar America. Written with unprecedented access to essential sources—including Cheever’s massive journal, only a fraction of which has ever been published—Bailey’s Cheever is a stunning example of the biographer’s art and a brilliant tribute to an essential author. From the Trade Paperback edition.

TFW you have crushing book nerd guilt about reading straight white guys and the diversity of your reading diet...then you get a (as of right now secret) project that involves...reading the whitest of the white guys! 😂 Hopefully the Baldwin and the fact I'm starting Homegoing today will help with the aforementioned guilt. #libraryhaul #bookguilt

AmandaL Homegoing is fantastic. I just put the last disc of the audio book in my car stereo for tomorrow's commute. 8y
