Hazards of Time Travel: A Novel

Autor Joyce Carol Oates
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 27 noi 2018
An ingenious, dystopian novel of one young woman’s resistance against the constraints of an oppressive society, from the inventive imagination of Joyce Carol Oates
“Time travel” — and its hazards—are made literal in this astonishing new novel in which a recklessly idealistic girl dares to test the perimeters of her tightly controlled (future) world and is punished by being sent back in time to a region of North America — “Wainscotia, Wisconsin”—that existed eighty years before.  Cast adrift in time in this idyllic Midwestern town she is set upon a course of “rehabilitation”—but cannot resist falling in love with a fellow exile and questioning the constrains of the Wainscotia world with results that are both devastating and liberating.  
Arresting and visionary,Hazards of Time Travel is both a novel of harrowing discovery and an exquisitely wrought love story that may be Joyce Carol Oates’s most unexpected novel so far.

Recenzii

“Joyce Carol Oates reinvents the genre to create a brilliant story of love and exile.”
“Oates’s writing has always seemed effortless: urgent, unafraid, torrential. She writes like a woman who walks into rough country and doesn’t look back.”
“A master of sharp dialogue and vibrant descriptions, Oates casts a powerful spell.”
“The most consistently inventive, brilliant, curious, and creative writer going, as far as I’m concerned.”
“Oates is still casting some awfully dark magic.”
