These are tales of psyches pushed to their limits by the expectations of everyday life--from a woman who gets lost on her drive home to her plush suburban home and ends up breaking into a stranger's house, to a first-person account of a cloned 1940s magazine pinup girl being sold at auction and embodying America's ideals of beauty and womanhood. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eTaken as a whole, the collection forms a poignant tapestry of regular people searching for their place in a social hierarchy, often with devastating and disastrous results. Rendered with stylish, fresh writing from an author who continues to push the envelope, the stories deftly weave in and out of a stream-of-consciousness to reflect the ways we process traumatic experiences and impart that uncertainty and uneasiness to the reader. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eOriginally appearing in publications as disparate as Harper's, Vice, and Conjunctions, the stories comprising Night, Neon showcase Oates' mastery of the suspense story--and her relentless use of the form to conduct unapologetically honest explorations of American identity.","brand":"Mysterious Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44458342318217,"sku":"9781613163115","price":16.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0376\/3057\/4729\/files\/9781613163115_df798.jpg?v=1757072662","url":"https:\/\/thebookmarkpr.com\/products\/night-neon-tales-of-mystery-and-suspense","provider":"The Bookmark Books \u0026 Gifts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
