Joyce Carol Oates is a supremely talented writer, and she does not disappoint in the very unique approach to this collection of short stories. Each is based on the final days of a famous author's life (Edgar Allan Poe, Emily Dickinson, Mark Twain, Henry James, and Ernest Hemingway). I was fascinated by the story lines, and - as always - her writing is such a pleasure. Some passages made me uncomfortable, and some were a bit gory, but JCO is bold. A great collection.
