- List Price: $18.95
- Binding: Paperback
- Publisher: Random House Inc
- Publish date: 05/01/2000
Description:
Sixty-one tremendous stories form this classic collection, bringing together everything from five earlier collections (most out of print) -- The Enormous Radio; The Housebreaker of Shady Hill; Some People, Places and Things That will Not Appear in my Next Novel; The Brigadier and the Golf Window; and The World of Apples -- as well as four major stories that had never been published in book form. The stories vacation with their wives and children enact a contest of desire and belief as ancient as Cain and Abel's, through the long list of stories that, one after another, have confirmed Cheever's impotance and his genius -- "O Youth and Beauty", "The Sorrows of Gin", The Five-Forty Eight", "The Country Husband", "The Angel of the Bridge", and "The Chastle Clarissa".
