John Cheever人物介绍
John William Cheever (May 27, 1912 – June 18, 1982) was an American novelist and short story writer. He is sometimes called \"the Chekhov of the suburbs\". His fiction is mostly set in the Upper East Side of Manhattan, the Westchester suburbs, old New England villages based on various South Shore towns around Quincy, Massachusetts, where he was born, and Italy, especially Rome. He is \"now recognized as one of the most important short fiction writers of the 20th century.\" While Cheever is perhaps best remembered for his short stories (including \"The Enormous Radio\", \"Goodbye, My Brother\", \"The Five-Forty-Eight\", \"The Country Husband\", and \"The Swimmer\"), he also wrote four novels, comprising The Wapshot Chronicle (National Book Award, 1958), The Wapshot Scandal (William Dean Howells Medal, 1965), Bullet Park (1969), Falconer (1977) and a novella Oh What a Paradise It Seems (1982).From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
