Περιγραφή για The Corn Maiden: And Other Stories of Mystery and Suspense Joyce Carol Oates Apollo

From the towering imagination of Joyce Carol Oates, literary icon and author of BLONDE, now a major motion picture, seven nightmarish and unbearably taut tales.Marissa is an innocent girl, with hair the colour of corn-silk. She does not hold others in strange thrall, as some young women do, she obeys her parents, she does not stay late after school, lingering on her walk through the swaying heads of maize. She is the perfect sacrifice. Twice nominated for the Nobel Prize, Oates presents an unbearably taut and terrifying tale combining the fury of folklore and blood sacrfice with the depths of adolescent insecurity in The Corn Maiden, a novella, followed by six other nightmares.Reviews for Joyce Carol Oates:\'A writer of extraordinary strengths.\' Guardian \'Oates chillingly depicts the darkness lurking within the everyday.\' Sunday Express \'Both haunting and sublime.\' Literary Review \'Splendidly chilling.\' Financial Times \'Visceral, psychologically involving, and socially astute.\' Booklist Σελίδες: 384, Έτος Έκδοσης: 0705, Διαστάσεις: 12.8x12.8cm
