Who's read his works before and what are your favs?
Stumbled across an interview of the American author John Cheever. https://www.theparisreview.org/interviews/3667/the-art-of-fiction-no-62-john-cheever?mc_cid=cf48842ceb&mc_eid=700a097d22
After reading it, I was just so enamoured with his language that I checked out some of his short stories, like The Enormous Radio. I was surprised I'd never heard of him before! I love how he's described as the "Chekhov of the suburbs" by wikipedia, especially since in school we just studied Gooseberries by Chekhov (which I found a little dull but I digress). Anyways, what are your favourites?
