Fifty years ago...............................























John Cheever (1912-1982) was featured in the March 27, 1964 issue of Time magazine.  The cover story is here, but it is gated to keep us non-Time subscribers from reading the old issues.  Sorry.  Cheever, a American fiction writer of great renown, led an interesting life.  You can read more about him here.   While I'd like to tell you I had read some of his works ... I haven't.  What caught my attention is the fact that he is the father of Susan Cheever, author of my favorite new book, e. e. cummings:  a life.
