Resumen del Editor
The stunning, classic portrait of a powerful man's downward spiral to moral ruin
Jerome "Corky" Corcorn. A money-juggling wheeler dealer, rising politico, popular man's man, and successful womanizer. It is a Memorial Day weekend, and we are about to live with him, breathe with him, and sweat with him in a nonstop marathon of mounting desperation as he tries to keep his financial empire from unraveling, his love life from shredding, and his rebellious daughter from destroying both herself and him. Seldom in fiction has a man been brought so vividly to life in all his strength and weakness, hunger and ambition, carnality and corruption. Rarely has the complex web of American society been revealed so rivetingly. And never has one of today's supreme writers, Joyce Carol Oates, written a bolder and better novel than this mesmerizing masterpiece.

Night. Sleep. Death.

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In this harrowing story based on authentic historical documents, we follow the career of Dr.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.

A recklessly idealistic girl dares to test the perimeters of her tightly controlled (future) world and is punished by being sent back in time to a region of North America - “Wainscotia, Wisconsin” - that existed 80 years before. Cast adrift in time in this idyllic Midwestern town, she is set upon a course of “rehabilitation” - but cannot resist falling in love with a fellow exile and questioning the constrains of the Wainscotia world with results that are both devastating and liberating.

Brilliant Portrait of a man in full
As usual Joyce Carol Oates fascinates by creating deep understanding for a man whom I would call a jerk if I would not have gotten to know him deeply and personally thru her exquisite writing

Stream-of-consciousness peak into someone's head
A reflective almost real-time account of a few days' thought processes and culmination of events in the life of narrator. Flawless narration!

misogynistic first page to last.
if you're a woman or a man you're going to feel worse about yourself and men after reading this. I failed both abused and judgmental.

A challenge to get through..
I hated this book. The beginning and end held my attention. Everything in between was a struggle. Many times I wanted to stop listening to the book but for some reason, I hoped there would be a reward for powering through. I had hoped to see some redeeming qualities to Corky. I could not stand him. He is a survivor, not intelligent, making decisions based on his wit. He was an alcoholic and disgustingly vulgar character. However, the unexpected ending did provide some of the reward I was looking for in “sticking with it”. I would never recommend this book to anyone and unfortunately, will be the last book I read by Joyce Carol Oates. I read “We are the Mulvaneys” and enjoyed it. So much so that I decided to try another book of Ms.Oates. Poor choice on my part.
