<p>Joyce Carol Oates’s Wonderland Quartet comprises four remarkable novels that explore social class in America and the inner lives of young Americans. In Expensive People, Oates takes a provocative and suspenseful look at the roiling secrets of America’s affluent suburbs. Set in the late 1960s, this first-person confession is narrated by Richard Everett, a precocious and obese boy who sees himself as a minor character in the alarming drama unfolding around him.</p> <p>Fascinated by yet alienated from his attractive, self-absorbed parents and the privileged world they inhabit, Richard incisively analyzes his own mismanaged childhood, his pretentious private schooling, his “successful-executive” father, and his elusive mother. In an act of defiance and desperation, eleven-year-old Richard strikes out in a way that presages the violence of ever-younger Americans in the turbulent decades to come.</p> <p>A National Book Award finalist, <em>Expensive People</em> is a stunning combination of social satire and gothic horror. “You cannot put this novel away after you have opened it,” said <em>The Detroit News</em>. “This is that kind of book?hypnotic, fascinating, and electrifying.”</p> <p><em>Expensive People</em> is the second novel in the Wonderland Quartet. The books that complete this acclaimed series, A <em>Garden of Earthly Delights</em>, them, and <em>Wonderland</em>, are also available from the Modern Library.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。
