Bullet Park
Bullet Park
A mordantly funny hymn to the American suburb which traces the intersection of two men--the innocent Eliot Nailles and his nemesis, Paul Hammer, whose object is to murder his neighbor's son. "It has the tone of a summing-up and the tension of a vision".--The New York Times.
From "a master American storyteller" (TIME), Bullet Park traces the fateful intersection of two men: Eliot Nailles, a nice fellow who loves his wife and son to blissful distraction, and the man who, after half a lifetime of drifting, settles down in Bullet Park with one objective--to murder Nailles's son.
Welcome to Bullet Park, a township in which even the most buttoned-down gentry sometimes manage to terrify themselves simply by looking in the mirror. In these exemplary environs Pulitzer Prize winner John Cheever delivers a lyrical and mordantly funny hymn to the American suburb--and to all the dubious normalcy it represents--written with unparalleled artistry and assurance. "A magnificent work of fiction.... A novel to pore over, move around in, live with." --The New York Times
