Vahşi Geceler

In this entertaining yet tragic book, Joyce Carol Oates imagines the last days of legendary American writers.
< br>So much so that Edgar Allan Poe goes crazy in the face of strange creatures that appear in the lighthouse where he works. Emily Dickinson transforms into a robot purchased by a New York couple. Mark Twain becomes a grumpy old man who doesn't like anyone except the "monkfish" who remind him of his dead daughter. Henry James works voluntarily in a hospital where the wounded soldiers he falls in love with. Ernest Hemingway, on the other hand, continues his suicide attempts in a depressed and paranoid atmosphere.

In these funny stories, Oates manages to explain the complex, tense relationship between the desire to create and old age through the mouths of five great writers. Wild Nights! is a pleasant journey into the world of writers, accompanied by another writer.
