{"product_id":"night-neon-joyce-carol-oates-9781613162309","title":"Night, Neon: Tales of Mystery and Suspense","description":"From literary icon Joyce Carol Oates comes a brand new collection of haunting and, at times, darkly humorous mystery \u0026amp; suspense stories. These are tales of psyches pushed to their limits by the expectations of everyday life--from a woman who gets lost on her drive home to her plush suburban home and ends up breaking into a stranger's house, to a first-person account of a cloned 1940s magazine pinup girl being sold at auction and embodying America's ideals of beauty and womanhood. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eTaken as a whole, the collection forms a poignant tapestry of regular people searching for their place in a social hierarchy, often with devastating and disastrous results. Rendered with stylish, fresh writing from an author who continues to push the envelope, the stories deftly weave in and out of a stream-of-consciousness to reflect the ways we process traumatic experiences and impart that uncertainty and uneasiness to the reader. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eOriginally appearing in publications as disparate as Harper's, Vice, and Conjunctions, the stories comprising Night, Neon showcase Oates' mastery of the suspense story--and her relentless use of the form to conduct unapologetically honest explorations of American identity.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Joyce Carol Oates\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1613162308\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781613162309\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Mysterious Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/15\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 312\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.30lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.30w x 1.20d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 04\/15\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 04\/26\/2021","brand":"Joyce Carol Oates","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48436879294719,"sku":"9781613162309","price":25.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_c55d7cae-f202-4a20-8fe2-12814508d212.jpg?v=1777158387","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/night-neon-joyce-carol-oates-9781613162309","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
