{"product_id":"9781598530353","title":"John Cheever: Complete Novels","description":"\u003cp\u003ePublished to coincide with editor Blake Bailey's groundbreaking new biography, here are the five novels of John Cheever, together in one volume for the first time. In these dazzling works Cheever laid bare the failings and foibles of not just the ascendant postwar elite but also the fallen Yankee aristocrats who stubbornly- and often grotesquely and hilariously-cling to their shabby gentility as the last vestige of former glory. \u003ci\u003eComplete Novels\u003c\/i\u003e gathers: the riotous family saga \u003ci\u003eThe Wapshot Chronicle\u003c\/i\u003e (winner of the National Book Award) and its sequel \u003ci\u003eThe Wapshot Scandal\u003c\/i\u003e (winner of the William Dean Howells Medal); the dark suburban drama \u003ci\u003eBullet Park\u003c\/i\u003e ('a magnificent work of fiction,' John Gardner remarked in \u003ci\u003eThe New York Times Book Review\u003c\/i\u003e); the prison novel \u003ci\u003eFalconer\u003c\/i\u003e, a radical departure that met with both critical and popular acclaim; and the lyrical ecological fable \u003ci\u003eOh What a Paradise It Seems\u003c\/i\u003e. A companion volume, \u003ci\u003e Collected Stories and Other Writings\u003c\/i\u003e, is the largest edition of Cheever's stories ever.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Library of America","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47036959424752,"sku":"9781598530353","price":35.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781598530353_p0.jpg?v=1763812886","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781598530353","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
