<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Unflinching and unforgettable, devastating in its impact, Joyce Carol Oate's fictional journey into the mind of paroled sex offender Quentin P. provides a psychologically astute portrait of the way cold calculation and dark obsession combine in a serial killer. Oates is the award-winning author of 26 novels.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><em>Zombie </em>is a classic novel of dark obsession from the extraordinary Joyce Carol Oates. A brilliant, unflinching journey into the mind of a serial killer, <em>Zombie </em>views the world through the eyes of Quentin P., newly paroled sex offender, as he chillingly evolves from rapist to mass murderer. Joyce Carol Oates--the prolific author of so many extraordinary bestsellers, including <em>The Gravediggers Daughter, Blonde, </em>and <em>The Falls</em>--demonstrates why she ranks among America's most respected and accomplished literary artists with this provocative, breathtaking, and disturbing masterwork. </p><p/><br></br><p><b> From the Back Cover </b></p></br></br><p>Meet Quentin P.</p><p>He is a problem for his professor father and his loving mother, though of course they do not believe the charge (sexual molestation of a minor) that got him in that bit of trouble.</p><p>He is a challenge for his court-appointed psychiatrist, who nonetheless is encouraged by the increasingly affirmative quality of his dreams and his openness in discussing them.</p><p>He is a thoroughly sweet young man for his wealthy grandmother, who gives him more and more, and can deny him less and less.</p><p>He is the most believable and thoroughly terrifying sexual psychopath and killer ever to be brought to life in fiction, as Joyce Carol Oates achieves her boldest and most brilliant triumph yet--a dazzling work of art that extends the borders of the novel into the darkest heart of truth.</p>
