Wow! I can't believe it!

Someone in this article actually mentioned one of my favorite authors.

John Cheever always stayed well lubricated throughout most of his writing career.

Then he became a sober writer.

In his autobiography Cheever tells of his stumbling down to his neighbor's house on a few occasions.

Great story.

But he says he wrote better when he was sober and that he wasted much of his talent over alcohol.

But I don't think so, it was the drink that made him what he was.

Anyone else here a big fan of Cheever?

If so, then where can you download his complete writings?

Cheever himself would happily tell you if he were still alive, after having a few beers, probably.

But not everyone can write like Cheever after one or ten beers.

From the article cited by the OP:

If anyone knew more about this subject, there were very few who knew more than John Cheever.
