- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5This is my first reading of John Cheever's writings, and I understand its very 'uncheeveresque' - a set of stories set during the depression, when there's not a lot of hope washing around, most people down on their luck, many trying to create luck in a number of tales set in Saratoga.
