Cheever Story, U2, and Winnogrand.

I was never a John Cheever fan, and I don’t know why. I just finished reading this lost story on Five Chapters. I was floored by him simple a love triangle can be written, or how seemingly simple. At the same time I’m looking forward to reading Couples by John Updike, which is supposed to be one of his best. The web coughed up the new U2 album, which I’ve been listening to all morning, good stuff, unusual for these guys to go this direction, risky, but somehow it pays off. In the future, I hope to review Blake Butler’s new book, Scorch Atlas, which I found over here. In the meantime check out my some great photography from a friend of mine, here. Of course if you have a moment, watch this video about the great Garry Winnogrand here.
