American author, b. Quincy, Mass. His expulsion from Thayer Academy was the subject of his first short story, published by the New Republic when he was 17. With meticulously rendered detail, Cheever writes about life in the affluent American suburbs. Although his works are usually comic, his view is that of a moralist. Among his works are the novels The Wapshot Chronicle (1957), The Wapshot Scandal (1964), and Falconer (1977); and two short-story collections.

American short story writer and novelist, called the "Chekhov of the suburbs". Cheever's main theme was the spiritual and emotional emptiness of life. He especially described the manners and morals of middle-class, suburban America, with an ironic humour which softened his basically dark vision. Although he often used his family as material, his daughter Susan Cheever has reminded that "of course none of us expected accuracy from my father. He made his living by making up stories."

(1912–1982), американский писатель. В его ранних романах представлен мифический пасторальный мир Новой Англии, из которого он вышел, и медленное его разрушение под действием новых ценностей. Более поздние произведения посвящены жизни Пригорода («Сабурбии») и ее неурядицам.
