Reviews
“Distinctive...and telling.” — The New York Times Book Review
“Susan Cheever decants the ups and downs of a remarkable man [and] does so in her distinctive style: succinct chapters, pithy profiles and telling detail...even more important are the insights and empathy so credibly her own as a reformed drinker who attended meetings of AA with her father, novelist John Cheever.” — The New York Times Book Review
“As the biography of one of the most humane and beneficial Americans who ever lived, it is a national treasure.” — Kurt Vonnegut
“[A] wise, well-reported life story of the man who changed the way the world deals with addiction.” — Chicago Sun-Times
