Joyce Carol Oates has long been a master of the short story, and in Beautiful Days: Stories (Ecco) she delivers another collection featuring stories both mysterious and surreal—and stories that are perfectly pitched for the confusion of the current political landscape. The diverse stories here explore the most secret, intimate, and unacknowledged interior lives of characters not unlike ourselves, who assert their independence in acts of bold and often irrevocable defiance. Oates will be talking about "Beautiful Days" at Mechanics' Institute on March 21st at 6:30 pm. Copies of the book will be on sale after my event. MI Members $10; Public $20.
