Uncollecting Cheever

The Family of John Cheever vs. Academy Chicago Publishers
In the late 1980s, publishers, authors, scholars, and the reading public watched the results of two lawsuits involving the family of John Cheever, short story writer, and Academy Chicago Press. At stake was not only a collection of short stories, but also the definition of intellectual property.
Ten years ago, publishers, authors, scholars, and the reading public watched anxiously the results of two lawsuits involving the family of John Cheever, famed short story writer, and Academy Chicago Publishers, a small publishing house. At stake was not only a collection of Cheever's lesser-known short stories, valued for their literary merit and historical value, but also the definition of intellectual property. In a dramatic re-telling, Anita Miller draws us into the case, creating vivid portraits of the participants and the tensions between them while also shedding light on key issues of our time.
