From Joyce Carol Oates, literary icon and author of
BLONDE
, now a major motion picture, a collection of four dark and compelling novellas about love gone wrong.
The young fourth wife of a prominent intellectual thinks herself happy until the first wife comes to stay. A shy teenager meets a dazzling kindred spirit. But the first sparks of young love soon take on a darker shade...
A spoiled frat boy decides to murder his parents, only to be floored by the power of his mother's love; and a fragile woman reveals deeply buried secrets to her curious lover with devastating consequences...
All of these stories are about love, just not as we like to think of it.
