Un thriller che è un pretesto per parlare di molto altro.
La scrittura di #JoyceCarolOates, che non avevo mai letto, non è certamente facile ma entrati nel suo mood conquista e si rivela ipnotica.

"Babysitter" di Joyce Carol Oates, 544pagine, La nave di Teseo, ed.2023.

I've reviewed Joyce Carol Oates's - 'Letters to a Biographer': https://niklas.reviews/2024/02/24/joyce-carol-oates-letters/

This book collects letters from Joyce Carol Oates, one of the more popular American authors of the twentieth century, to Greg Johnson, biographer. In the introduction, Oates says she could not have ‘imagined that Greg would be my primary correspondent through most of my adult life.’ He first wrote to her in 1975 and they’ve still not stopped exchanging letters, although the introduction of email has shortened the contents of their letters, according to Johnson; this book contains a selection of letters from 1979 to 2005.

I've started reading 'Joyce Carol Oates: Letters to a Biographer', a collection of letters from Joyce Carol Oates to Greg Johnson.

Oates is much funnier than I somehow expected. There's a lot of author type in these pages.

The book is published in March, 2024.

I like this article by @JudeDoyle . It's kind and funny. And something good and wholesome on Twitter for once, yay!

I just watched Blonde and while the book is one of my favorites so I never expected the film to be better I was still pretty disappointed.

This could've been Twin Peaks: Fire Walk with Me but instead it came off as a vanity project for Andrew Dominik.

This was brilliant: taut and nightmarish. Raced through it in a day. #books #literature #joycecaroloates
