( ) Cheever's JOURNALS are gorgeously composed, trial runs for the short stories and novels he so meticulously constructed. The words pour out of him, startling, candid observations of the world surrounding him rendered in peerless prose. A book for careful, scrupulous readers, folks who enjoy reading poetry slowly, savoring each syllable or inflection. aucune critique | ajouter une critique

John Cheever's journals reveal the inner life of this remarkable writer and the contradictions that drove him. He loved his wife and their children, but was acutely lonely; he loved women, but he also loved men; he hated himself for his drinking, but for much of his life was dependent upon it; he was a great writer, but one whose acute levels of perception often crippled him as a person. His journals are candid, beautiful and often startling. Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |
