Reading Club: F. Scott Fitzgerald

This story always gets varied reactions! Personally, I love it and it reminds me of F. Scott Fitzgerald. Give “The Swimmer” by John Cheever a read - you can click the link or just scroll down to read it below.

I liked how the backstory unfolded through the characters in each backyard and how each pool showed something about those characters both on and off stage.

I wouldn’t say I had a favourite phrase or line. Overall I liked the story.
