A Book of American Martyrs Summary

A Book of American Martyrs by Joyce Carol Oates

'The story of Trump's America' Daily Mail

Two families.

Two faces of America.

One violent crime that will bitterly divide them - and yet bind them together forever.

'A magnificent story of two broken families' Independent

'Page-turning, gripping, full of unexpected twists' Observer

'From its dramatic opening, with the killing of an abortionist, the book rockets forwards ... Ingenious, agile, dazzling' Literary Review

'Morally meaty and always readable' Sunday Times

'A masterpiece' Washington Post

A Book of American Martyrs Reviews

'The story of Trump's America' Daily Mail

'Page-turning, gripping, full of unexpected twists' Observer

'A magnificent story of two broken families, both steeped in grief' Independent

'Icily subtle ... at its spine-tingling best when staring into the dark, a sliver away from the Gothic' Spectator

'Dramatic, dazzling, ingenious, agile ... her uniquely sane, empathetic voice seems particularly vital and timely during Trump's presidency' Literary Review

'The most relevant book of Oates's half-century-long career . . . a masterpiece' Washington Post

'Oates's American saga captivates because it exists within an actual drama playing out across the country. A graceful and excruciating story of two families who do not live very far apart, but exist in different realities' USA Today
