  • "Equally then, one might claim that an Oatesian sentence suggests Oates's oeuvre, or at least that, despite their vast differences, one novel suggests all her novels." ~Gavin Cologne-Brookes, Introduction: Humility, Audacity and the Novels of Joyce Carol Oates, Studies in the Novel, v.38:no.4 (winter 2006)
