A review by gregoryscottdilcox
Bullet Park by John Cheever

4.0

This is an absolutely beautifully written little bit of madness from Cheever. The characters are easy to relate to while at the same time being off putting, and the story seemingly leads no where, just to end up at a satisfying conclusion. It's hard to sum up what exactly was great about this novel other than it was just simply beautifully written. There is no linear structure, and suburban America is often a tedious subject but Cheever makes it work.
