Joyce Carol Oates

In her latest collection of short stories, Zero Sum, the iconic writer uses her powerful abilities to tell stories of a brilliant young philosophy student bent on seducing her famous philosopher-mentor who finds herself outmaneuvered; clever high school girls wreaking vengeance on sexual predators in their community; a woman stalked by a would-be killer who may be confiding in the wrong former lover… and many more thrilling tales.

I'm glad Joyce expounded upon "The Baby Monitor." It's a classic piece of Joyce Carol Oates short fiction, one of my favourites from Zero Sum.
