Joyce Carol Oates

New York, 1938

One of the great figures of contemporary American literature.

A highly prolific author, she has written over fifty novels and a wide range of essays.

A strong candidate for the Nobel Prize, Oates divides her time between writing and teaching courses at Princeton University in New Jersey.

After presenting Qué fue de los Mulvaney, the library dedicated to the author, which Lumen inaugurated in 2003, she now continues with Las hermanas Zinn and Zombie, among other titles.
