In conversation with Barbara Lane, JCCSF Director of Lectures & Literature Joyce Carol Oates' prodigious output and talent for creating characters who draw us in never ceases to amaze. Nor does the insight she offers into all strata of human behavior - from Jeffrey Dahmer and Marilyn Monroe to the plainly dressed housewife next door. The newest novel by this National Book Award and PEN/Malamud Award winner is The Gravedigger's Daughter, a sprawling, masterful epic about a young woman's struggle for identity and survival in post-World War II America.
