Resumen del Editor
Four brand-new novellas by the number one New York Times best-selling, National Book Award-winning "grand mistress of ghoulishness" (Publishers Weekly).
An academic in Pennsylvania discovers a terrifying trauma from her past after inheriting a house in Cardiff, Maine, from someone she has never heard of. A pubescent girl, overcome with loneliness, befriends a feral cat that becomes her protector from the increasingly aggressive males that surround her. A brilliant but shy college sophomore is distraught to discover that she's pregnant, and the professor who takes her under his wing may not have innocent intentions. And a woman who marries into a family shattered by tragedy finds herself haunted by her predecessor's voice, an inexplicably befouled well, and a compulsive attraction to a garage that took two lives.
In these psychologically daring, chillingly suspenseful pieces, the author of We Were the Mulvaneys and Blonde writes about women facing threats past and present, once again cementing her reputation for "great intelligence and dead-on imaginative powers" (Los Angeles Times Book Review).

Here, gathered in one volume, are the stories that made Clarice a Brazilian legend. Originally a cloth edition of 86 stories, now we have 89 in all, covering her whole amazing career, from her teenage years to her deathbed. In these pages, we meet teenagers becoming aware of their sexual and artistic powers, humdrum housewives whose lives are shattered by unexpected epiphanies, old people who don't know what to do with themselves - and in their stories, Clarice takes us through their lives - and hers - and ours.

Set in the early postwar years, it probes the destructive effects of war and the transition from a feudal Japan to an industrial society. Ozamu Dazai died, a suicide, in 1948. But the influence of his book has made "people of the setting sun" a permanent part of the Japanese language, and his heroine, Kazuko, a young aristocrat who deliberately abandons her class, a symbol of the anomie which pervades so much of the modern world.

Night. Sleep. Death. The Stars. is a gripping examination of contemporary America through the prism of a family tragedy: When a powerful parent dies, each of his adult children reacts in startling and unexpected ways, and his grieving widow in the most surprising way of all. Stark and penetrating, Joyce Carol Oates’s latest novel is a vivid exploration of race, psychological trauma, class warfare, grief, and eventual healing, as well as an intimate family novel in the tradition of the author’s best-selling We Were the Mulvaneys.

In this exquisitely tense narrative reimagining of Edward Hopper's Eleven A.M., 1926, the reader enters the minds of both the woman and her married lover, each consumed by alternating thoughts of disgust and arousal, as he rushes, amorously, murderously, to her door.

In this harrowing story based on authentic historical documents, we follow the career of Dr. Silas Weir, “Father of Gyno-Psychiatry,” as he ascends from professional anonymity to national renown. Humiliated by a procedure gone terribly wrong, Weir is forced to take a position at the New Jersey Asylum for Female Lunatics, where he reigns. There, he is allowed to continue his practice, unchecked for decades, making a name for himself by focusing on women who have been neglected by the state—women he subjects to the most grotesque modes of experimentation.

An okay collection…
The stories in this collection were okay, somewhat engaging and definitely listenable. A good choice if you don’t have time for a full length novel, and can only listen in short bursts. I don’t think Joyce Carol Oates is one of my favorite authors, but I do like this genre, so I would try more of her writing. Not bad, but just doesn’t totally grab me! I can’t decide about the narration: it was somewhat robotic and monotone, but appropriately serious for this type of (horror) content.

Just ok
These 4 novellas were fine. I definitely struggled to finish this, though. I found each story somewhat repetitive, and all 4 of the main characters were very similar.
I also did not enjoy the narrator. The voices she used for male characters were all the same and sounded silly. Her narration was ok, but was overdone.

It was okay.
The first novella needed some serious volume control, when I listened to it I would have to constant turn the volume up and down bc the hush tones but also raised voices would be too loud in my ears. I understand they’re short stories but I felt like so many unfinished parts could’ve had a few more things to tie it together. Kind of felt pointless to read

All stories in collection
JCO is my all time favorite writer. Her prose is poetry. And this reader is exquisite , able to capture what I consider the essence of the "Oates-ien" experience.

Awful story and worse reading!
I couldn’t stand listening to the reader. It was the normal course of her reading not just the dreadful voices she made for almost all the characters- terrible terrible terrible and I’m a HUGE JCO fan!
