Editorial Reviews:
Synopsis:

An old man falls violently in love and does valiant battle against unscrupulous polluters in John Cheever's ineffably joyful last novel.


Review:

Of course [Cheever] wants too much. He wants wisdom AND beauty, God AND sex. Don't we all? Didn't Chekhov?"

John Leonard, New York Times Book Review, 03/07/1982

Review:

"Ever more boldly the celebrant of the grand poetry of life, Cheever, once a taut and mordant chronicler of urban and suburban disappointments, now speaks in the cranky, granular, impulsive, confessional style of our native wise men and exhorters since Emerson. The pitch of his final page is positively Transcendental."

John Updike, New Yorker, 04/05/1982

Book Description: Random House USA Inc, United States, 1992. Paperback. Book Condition: New. Reissue. 203 x 133 mm. Brand New Book with Free Worldwide Delivery. John Cheever's last novel is a fable set in a village so idyllic it has no fast-food outlet and having as its protagonist an old man, Lemuel Sears, who still has it in him to fall wildly in love with strangers of both sexes. But Sears's paradise is threatened; the pond he loves is being fouled by unscrupulous polluters. In Cheever's accomplished hands the battle between an elderly romantic and the monstrous aspects of late-twentieth-century civilization becomes something ribald, poignant, and ineffably joyful.
