Review # 1 was written on 2009-12-11 00:00:00 Clayton Ratledge I picture Joyce Carol Oates laughing to herself with a sinister grin, and thinking "Wait till they get a load of these." Fourteen stories, some are dark, some darker. Three stories rate five stars, some of the rest rate two. If you have just started this collection, and aren't yet interested, just keep going. The first three stories didn't ring my bell. By the end, I can see the most ordinary looking people, and know that they are capable of almost anything.

Review # 2 was written on 2015-07-08 00:00:00 Charles Wheeler 4.5. I was looking back at my comments at each story and overwhelmingly had a brilliant selection for this book. I love that when I read JCO it's like putting on my favorite Jammie's. It's comfy and soothing. It's just the way she writes. It sounds strange but from suicidal wives to murderous criminals she does it al in a poetic voice that can make you feel like you're setting off on a literary adventure. I will definitely keep this book and continue to chip away at her work!
