About this audiobook

Performed by Meryl Streep

Here is one of twelve magnificent stories, originally part of The John Cheever Audio Collection, in which John Cheever celebrateswith unequaled grace and tendernessthe deepest feelings we have.

As Cheever writes in his preface, "These stories seem at times to be stories of a long-lost world when the city of New York was still filled with a river light, when you heard the Benny Goodman quartets from a radio in the corner stationery store, and when almost everybody wore a hat."
