Middle Age Summary
|
E-book extra: "Enchanted Places," an essay by Joyce Carol Oates. In Salthill-on-Hudson, a half-hour train ride from Manhattan, everyone is rich, beautiful, and -- though they look much younger -- middle-aged. When a charismatic, mysterious sculptor dies suddenly in a brash act of heroism, shock waves rock the town. Publishers Weekly, starred review: "Oates's latest once more confirms her mastery of the form." USA Today: "The pleasures of Middle Age are many.... I laughed out loud." Dan Cryer, Washington Post Book World: "Rarely has Oates displayed such tender wisdom about the ways in which well-meaning people go astray yet manage to find themselves." Miami Herald: "Middle Age [is a] sweet, hyperventilating new comedy about the wins, losses, and absurdities of love and marriage.... [Oates] has few equals for endurance, daring, depth and sheer plenitude of effort." |
