One of the most compelling and intimate books you'll ever read * Independent * Beautifully written, lyrically spiritual, sexually candid memoirs * Mail on Sunday * Cheever's journals include the struggle for recognition, the problem-drinking and covert homosexuality of a public figure and, finally, cancer. His intelligence and honesty powerfully communicate the sense of life as an urgent predicament * Sunday Times * These diaries are so painfully personal...that they were not published until after his death. But they also concentrate the true essence of what made his short stories great * Sunday Express * John Cheever understood fallibility and that made for the greatness in his writing * The Times * In superb prose, Cheever records his alcoholism, homosexuality, life of frustration and anxiety, success and chaos. Agonising and unforgettable * Observer * Moving and very honest * Guardian * Will cause readers to give Cheever 'the respect and admiration' he deserves. * Contemporary Review *More details
