25. Granta: 'Softcore' By Joyce Carol Oates Full text of a short story, Softcore, by the author. http://www.granta.com/extracts/1929

Sign in Create an account Help Latest issue ... Features 'Softcore' Joyce Carol Oates A tale of sibling rivalry: 'They were two sisters of youthful middle age with three breasts between them and a history that might be summed up as much left unsaid. 'Why are you showing me these?' 'I thought you should know.' 'Should know what?' They were two sisters of youthful middle age with three breasts between them and a history that might be summed up as much left unsaid . Maggie, the elder, who'd had a mastectomy eighteen months before, rarely alluded to the fact in her younger sister's company and spoke with an air of startled reproach if Esther brought up the subject of her health; as if Maggie's breast cancer were a symptom of a moral weakness, a deficiency of character, about which Esther had no right to know. Eighteen months before, after the removal of Maggie's left breast, Esther had driven 370 miles to see her sister and was immediately rebuffed by Maggie's steely good humour, just as, when they were girls, she'd been outplayed on the tennis court by Maggie's remarkable cannon-ball serves and vicious returns. In her hospital bed, in the presence of Maggie's husband Dwight, Maggie had assured Esther, indicating the bulky-bandaged left side of her chest, 'Hey, sweetie, don't look like a funeral. It's no great loss, I wasn't planning on using it again.' 'Was this funny? Esther had managed to smile, weakly.

28. JOYCE CAROL OATES : BIOGRAPHY A BRIEF BIOGRAPHY from Greg Johnson s A Reader s Guide to the Recent Novels of joyce carol oates Copyright © 1996 by Greg Johnson (printed by permission). http://www.usfca.edu/fac-staff/southerr/jco.bio.html

A BRIEF BIOGRAPHY from Greg Johnson's A Reader's Guide to the Recent Novels of Joyce Carol Oates (printed by permission) Joyce Carol Oates has often expressed an intense nostalgia for the time and place of her childhood, and her working-class upbringing is lovingly recalled in much of her fiction. Yet she has also admitted that the rural, rough-and-tumble surroundings of her early years involved "a daily scramble for existence." Growing up in the countryside outside of Lockport, New York , she attended a one-room schoolhouse in the elementary grades. As a small child, she told stories instinctively by way of drawing and painting before learning how to write. After receiving the gift of a typewriter at age fourteen, she began consciously training herself, "writing novel after novel" throughout high school and college. Success came early: while attending Syracuse University on scholarship, she won the coveted Mademoiselle fiction contest. After graduating as valedictorian, she earned an M.A. in English at the University of Wisconsin, where she met and married Raymond J. Smith after a three-month courtship; in 1962, the couple settled in Detroit, a city whose erupting social tensions suggested to Oates a microcosm of the violent American reality. Her finest early novel, them , along with a steady stream of other novels and short stories, grew out of her Detroit experience. "Detroit, my 'great' subject," she has written, "made me the person I am, consequently the writer I am—for better of worse."

29. Chord Structure In Joyce Carol Oates' "Heat" oates, joyce carol. Heat. Heat and Other Stories. By oates. oates, joyce carol. Introduction to Heat . The Oxford Book of American Short Stories. Ed. http://www.levity.com/corduroy/oateshea.htm

Chord Structure in Joyce Carol Oates' "Heat" by J. Alan Rice ( jarice@neca.com The story told in "Heat" could be written as a brief news article, accompanied by a sentimental obituary: "The mutilated bodies of eleven-year-old twins Rhea and Rhoda Kunkel were found near Whipple's Ice on Main Street. Charges of sexual assault and murder will not be pressed against the assused, Roger Whipple, because of his alleged diminished capacity." " Schoolmates recall Rhea and Rhoda." At times, in fact, Oates' arid style seems almost like a newspaper account, stripped of all ornament, each sentence in isolation as if an editor, pressed for space, had blue-pencilled every unnecessary word. Oates' brief introduction to the story as anthologized in The Oxford Book of American Short Stories explains that this perception is justified: For the author, the formal challenge of "Heat" was to present a narrative in a seemingly acausal manner, analogous to the playing of a piano sans pedal; as if each paragraph, or chord, were separate from the rest. For how otherwise can we speak of the unspeakable, except through the prism of technique? Oates means that the narrative has been pared down to its essentials. The prism image suggests elements separated so that one may see each of them individually. But the musical analogy is perhaps more useful. "Heat" is like a composition of chords and, to use another music theory term

IM Visit Iris Murdoch on the web: Iris Murdoch JCO Sacred and Profane Iris Murdoch by Joyce Carol Oates Originally published in the New Republic, Novermber 18, 1978 Reprinted in The Profane Art Though Iris Murdoch has defined the highest art as that which reveals and honors the minute, "random" detail of the world, and reveals it together with a sense of its integrity, its unity and form, her own ambitious, disturbing, and eerily eccentric novels are stichomythic structures in which ideas, not things, and certainly not human beings, flourish.

36. JOYCE CAROL OATES : THE DEATH THROES OF ROMANTICISM Essay on the poetry of Sylvia Plath, by joyce carol oates. http://www.usfca.edu/fac-staff/southerr/throes.html

Originally published in Southern Review v9 n3 July, 1973 (Summer) Reprinted in New Heaven, New Earth by Joyce Carol Oates Printed by permission THE DEATH THROES OF ROMANTICISM: The Poetry of Sylvia Plath by Joyce Carol Oates The eye of a little god. . . . Plath, Mirror The Colossus The Bell Jar Ariel (1965), and the posthumous volumes published in 1971, Crossing the Water and Winter Trees. Narcissi Lawrence said in Apocalypse that when he heard people complain of being lonely he knew their affliction: ". . . they have lost the Cosmos." It is easy to agree with Lawrence, but less easy to understand what he means. Yet if there is a way of approaching Plath's tragedy, it is only through an analysis of what Plath lost and what she was half-conscious of having lost: I am solitary as grass. What is it I miss? Shall I ever find it, whatever it is? ("Three Women") We must take this loss as a real one, not a rhetorical echoing of other poets' cries; not a yearning that can be dismissed by the robust and simple-minded among us who like that formidably healthy and impossible Emerson, sought to dismiss the young people of his day "diseased" with problems of original sin, evil, predestination, and the like by contemptuously diagnosing their worries as "the soul's mumps, and measles, and whooping-coughs" ("Spiritual Laws"). Emerson possessed a consciousness of such fluidity and explorative intelligence that any loss of the cosmos for him could seem nothing more serious than an adolescent's perverse rebelliousness, at its most profound a doubt to be answered with a few words.
