A teenage girl accepts a ride from a stranger in a rust-speckled Cadillac. An old man is obsessed by the memory of his innocent childhood intrusion on a half-dressed aunt.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn forty-four very short, very powerful stories, Joyce Carol Oates fashions brief, intensely compact dramas out of the unwieldy material of human experience. The stories in The Assignation are infused with a \"radiant intensity,\" wrote James Atlas in the New York Times Book Review, and they convey the depth and scope of a novel in a few charged pages. The Assignation is an electric display of the talents that make Joyce Carol Oates one of our finest short story writers.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Joyce Carol Oates\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e PerfectBound\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/01\/1996\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 208\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.59lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.54w x 0.52d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780880014403\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"PerfectBound","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":40242094342259,"sku":"9.78E+12","price":16.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/products\/img_a0b94072-3852-4d6f-be6a-929fc2378a10.jpg?v=1657199241","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/en-de\/products\/the-assignation-stories-9780880014403","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
