"Grab this collection, get a blanket and someone you care about, then hurry to find a pristine park in the Northeast where you can read aloud. The result will be astonishingly weighty and strangely refreshing."
"I'll be honest, this was a LONG book. I had no idea just how many short stories Cheever had written and it took me more than a month to get through them all. I love his writing, but the themes are all the same so my best advice would be to get this book, and then read one story at a time over the course of, say, a year. Front to back was tough. No regrets, however!"
"Some of these stories were in a previous collection that I read 20 years ago but they are definitely worth rereading. Cheever is superb at the short story and every one is unique."
