The Short Stories of John Cheever
Author: In case you couldn't guess, it's written John Cheever.
Description: If you've ever been interested in the vain, pointless, tortured people living in New England, this book is perfect for you. Equal parts sad and revelatory, it's as close to looking into a middle class nightmare as you're ever likely to see.
