About the author

John Cheever

298 books1,079 followers
John Cheever was an American novelist and short story writer, sometimes called "the Chekhov of the suburbs" or "the Ovid of Ossining." His fiction is mostly set in the Upper East Side of Manhattan, the suburbs of Westchester, New York, and old New England villages based on various South Shore towns around Quincy, Massachusetts, where he was born.

His main themes include the duality of human nature: sometimes dramatized as the disparity between a character's decorous social persona and inner corruption, and sometimes as a conflict between two characters (often brothers) who embody the salient aspects of both--light and dark, flesh and spirit. Many of his works also express a nostalgia for a vanishing way of life, characterized by abiding cultural traditions and a profound sense of community, as opposed to the alienating nomadism of modern suburbia.

اين كتاب كه مجموع 18 داستان كوتاه و جذاب است در مورد زندگي نامه جان چيور، نويسنده كتاب كه از زمان پايان خدمتش در ارتش كه در دوره اواخر جنگ جهاني دوم است شروع مي‌شود. جان چيور در اين كتاب شيطنت‌هاي دوران جواني و برخورد با اشخاص را به خوبي بيان مي‌كند كه حتي خود نويسنده در مقدمه درباره خام بودن و ناپختگي در رفتارهايش كه باعث خجالت او مي‌شود نوشته است. اين كتاب براي من جذاب و جالب بود به طوري كه در هنگام مطالعه آن متوجه گذر زمان نشدم.
حتما اين كتاب را تهيه كنيد خواندنش بسيار لذت بخش است. مي توانيد از اين آدرس خريد را انجام بديد
