Conversations with Joyce Carol Oates
These twenty-five interviews with Joyce Carol Oates from early in her career to the present are the first such collection to be published.

Un amore marchiato dalla nostra civiltà violenta e ipocrita, che Joyce Carol Oates esplora nelle sue parti più oscure e minacciose. La sua prosa procede senza tergiversazioni, elegante, precisa, attenta alle sfumature, con un ritmo incalzante che porta sempre a una conclusione capace di stupire il lettore o di costringerlo a uscire dalla routine, dalle solari, rassicuranti certezze, per guardare nella penombra dei desideri inquietanti.
