Publisher Description Nobody has ever caught Marilyn more brilliantly in words than Oates. John Sutherland, Sunday Times Oates has been fearless in taking on a subject that criss-crossed almost every important strand of mid twentieth century history ...Apart from her, only Don Delillo, among todays American novelists, and no one at all among todays American women novelists, would be able to handle such a huge cast of imagined and real characters ...A mighty - and a mesmerising - book. Elaine Showalter, Literary Review This novel deserves a wide audience. Blonde is what whole shelvesful of Monroe biographies should be but are not - a fabulous reinvention of the life of a fabulous reinvention, a mirror on our collective vanities and a cracking page turner to boot. Evening Standard Blonde is an epic achievement, a masterpiece, a piece of art so shatteringly well-conceived and lavishly-wrought that at times it almost does not seem like a mere book ...If this book doesnt catapult Joyce Carol Oates into British best sellerdom, nothing will.Julie Myerson, Independent on Sunday Novelists such as John Updike, Philip Roth, Tom Wolfe and Norman Mailer slug it out for the title of the Great American Novelist. But maybe theyre wrong. Maybe, just maybe, the Great American Novelist is a woman. The Herald Author Biography Joyce Carol Oates is a distinguished, award-winning author and critic.
