description

Meet Joyce as she reads from her new novel, MY SISTER, MY LOVE, the unexpurgated first-person story of the 19-year-old “survivor” of one of America’s most notorious families. In this ingeniously constructed novel, part mystery story, part elegy for the narrator’s murdered 6-year-old sister, part “inspirational” document, and part expose of the pretensions of upper middle class suburbia in our time, Oates presents the intimate lives of those who dwell in Tabloid Hell with unexpected sympathy and subtlety.
