Beschreibung

'Oates's imagination is as unique, dystopian and vivid as Lewis Carroll's' ROSE TREMAIN'A master storyteller' THE TIMES'Electric' NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEWZero-sum games are played for lethal stakes in these arresting stories by one of America's most acclaimed writers.A brilliant young philosophy student bent on seducing her famous philosopher-mentor finds herself outmaneuvered; diabolically clever high school girls wreak a particularly apt sort of vengeance on sexual predators in their community; a woman stalked by a would-be killer may be confiding in the wrong former lover; a young woman is morbidly obsessed by her unfamiliar new role as "e;mother."e; In the collection's longest story, a much-praised cutting-edge writer cruelly experiments with "e;drafts"e; of his own suicide.In these powerfully wrought stories that hold a mirror up to our time, Joyce Carol Oates has created a world of erotic obsession, thwarted idealism, and ever-shifting identities. Provocative and stunning, Zero-Sum reinforces Oates's standing as a literary treasure and an artist of the mysterious interior life.'Alluringly dark and spiky' NEW STATESMAN'Zero-Sum is brilliant - bloodied, breathless, weird' A. K. BLAKEMORE'Dark, unsettling stories ... There's a disquieting violence simmering ... a shrill alarm of disquiet' DAILY MAIL'Oates is an inspired writer, and a formidable psychologist' INDEPENDENT
