Distraught, she allows a distinguished visiting professor to take her under his wing, though it quickly becomes evident that he is interested in more than an academic mentorship. Lastly, "The Surviving Child" is Stefan, who was spared when his mother, a famous poet, killed his sister and herself. Stefan's father remarries, but his young wife is haunted by dead poet's voice dancing in the wind, an inexplicably befouled well, and a compulsive draw to the same gar-age that took two lives.In these psychologically daring, chillingly suspenseful pieces, Joyce Carol Oates writes about women facing threats past and present.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
