The Doll-Master and Other Tales of Terror by Joyce Carol Oates
Six tales to chill the blood from the unique imagination of Joyce Carol Oates.
A writer of extraordinary strengths * Guardian *
Both haunting and sublime * Literary Review *
An unsettling read worth every resulting jump in the night.. [Oates is a] literary goddess * Daily Mail *
As usual with Oates, it is horribly readable, but driven by something disturbingly like genuine misanthropy * Sunday Times *
Oates chillingly depicts the darkness lurking within the everyday * Sunday Express *
A sense of helplessness is the essence of horror, and Oates conveys that feeling as well as any writer around * New York Times Book Review *
A collection that displays Oates's ability to inhabit distinctive voices to chilling effect * Observer *
At her best Oates is simply incredible * Nudge Book *
A revelation... These tales clearly illustrate the author's great narrative and literary skills. Highly recommended * Promoting Crime *
Oates is simply the most consistently inventive, brilliant, curious and creative writer going, as far as I'm concerned -- Gillian Flynn
