Reviews

"...when tackling Wild Nights!...I found myself not only enthralled but transported." -- Washington Times"Our most industrious writer back at the anvil, making her usual unholy racket, while simultaneously throwing off sporadic sparks of unalloyed brilliance." -- Kirkus Reviews"...an imaginative, impressive work that spotlights yet another side of Oates' prodigious talent." -- St. Louis Post-Dispatch

You can't go wrong with any of Oates's short fiction, but you shouldn't miss this exceptional collection, ably narrated by Mark Deakins, which includes the imaginative, creepy accounts of the final days of five American authors, slyly paying homage to them by emulating their styles.
