Cheaters

“Wonderfully written...more than just a good beach read.” —Washington Post Book World“What gives the book a compelling edge is the characters’ self-discovery...Thankfully, Dickey goes beyond the ‘men are dogs and women are victims’ stereotype.” —USA Today“Raw, street-savvy humor.” —Publishers Weekly“As the title suggests, this is a book about dawgs. Not dogs, but d-a-w-g-s. Cheatin’, lyin’, no good, no-‘count, dirty lowdown mendawgs and womendawgs…You can’t read Cheaters without becoming an active participant. You easily find yourself turning a page, shaking your head, and tsk-tsking.”—Los Angeles Times“Modern dating has become a world in which individuals play games to keep the upper hand. Eric Jerome Dickey explores these mores with verve.”—USA Today“Each character’s voice [is] smooth, unique and genuine.”—Washington Post Book World“Cheaters not only makes readers examine their own behavior but keeps them laughing while doing so.”—Library Journal“His storytelling skills are first-rate.”—Detroit Free Press “Wrenching emotion…he draws a tragic, romantic picture of love as both a panacea and a curse, an unavoidably painful pleasure.”—Durham Herald-Sun“A generous helping of humor and a distinctly male viewpoint.”—Atlanta Journal and Constitution“Dickey’s fourth novel easily fulfills the expectations created by his earlier work and introduces a fresh sobriety to his talent for dialogue and character…smoothly done.”—Kirkus Reviews
