Description
Zero-sum is a collection of stories by Joyce Carol Oates that explore the darker aspects of human nature. These arresting tales feature characters who are outmaneuvered, exact revenge, or struggle with their own obsessions. In these powerfully wrought stories, Oates holds up a mirror to our time, revealing a world of erotic obsession, thwarted idealism, and shifting identities. The author's unique perspective on the human condition is both provocative and stunning. This collection reinforces Oates's standing as a literary treasure, offering a glimpse into the mysterious interior life that has made her one of America's most acclaimed writers.
