1994110665New York: A William Abrahams Book / Dutton 1994. Octavo printed gray wrappers. Advance copy uncorrected proof of the first edition. A collection of sixteen stories with afterword by Oates. "A superb collection in which a writer from the literary mainstream unabashedly embraces the modern horror tradition." - Barron ed Fantasy and Horror 1999 6-290. "With such stories as those found in HAUNTED the terrain is squarely once again the human mind albeit perhaps with cosmic implications: if we are haunted as humans it may because we are adrift in a universe that offers us scant comfort. In any case this remarkable collection corroborates what by now everyone must well know: that in her disturbing explorations of the darkness of the human heart--surely the blackest well of mystery one could imagine--Joyce Carol Oates is one of the most brilliant writers of our time." - Donald R. Burleson Necrofile: The Review of Horror Literature #14 1994 p. 10. A fine copy. #110665 A William Abrahams Book / Dutton unknown books

197784815New York: The Vanguard Press 1977. Octavo cloth. First edition. "Eighteen stories first published in mainstream literary journals all remarkable for their psychologically acute explorations of the dark side of ordinary experience . Oates rivals Flannery O'Connor in her ability to bring grotesque characters vividly to life and Shirley Jackson in her skill at evoking the perversity of everyday human nature. The stories in NIGHT-SIDE are provocative and haunting for their depiction of characters for whom alienation and solipsism are an unavoidable response to life." - Barron ed Fantasy and Horror 1999 6-291.
