When all the men wore hats: Susan Cheever on the stories of John Cheever

Trama

A sympathetic and illuminating account of the stories of John Cheever, and the intersecting life and work of the legendary writer John Cheever, as told by his eldest daughter. Cheever’s chronicles of modern life both emerged from a distinctly American culture and created it―inspiring everything from Mad Men to a Raymond Carver story, from rock songs to a Seinfeld episode.
