The Swimmer

I really enjoyed the swimmer by John Cheever. This story was mainly about the acholic named Neddy Merrill. He was a man of highly expected skills who had money as well. He and his wife lucinda they attended this swimming party that was full of rich people who thought highly of themselves. If you was at this party you had to be rich they didnt except people with no money here. They got filthy drunk here at this party everyone. Neddy was a swimmer his wife wounld drive him to different places where he could swim through every one pools. This story reminds me of a time when i was in high school people where high class and had there own groups they would hang in. i remembered this particular party that they had for one group it was big pool party. Everyone that was popular was there and if you wasnt you was a no go. So it was this one guy who was the basketball star everyone knew him he was a swimmer sort of like neddy was he showed peopl how good he could swim. they also dranked and smoked at this party this guy never touched a drink of acohol in his life until this night. Later what i remebered that he didnt finish school he was drunk all the time in high school he had problems and it ended his life sort of like neddy.
