Give Me Your Heart
In 10 razor-sharp stories, National Book Award winner Joyce Carol Oates explores the darkness that lives within us, showing us that crime—and punishment—often starts closer to home than we imagine. In her suspenseful “Strip Poker,” for instance, a reckless adolescent girl finds herself lured into a dangerous game with a gathering of increasingly threatening young men. Her award-winning “Smother” then shows how a woman’s nightmare memory reawakens a decades-old murder that may have ties to her own mother. And in “Give Me Your Heart,” a woman’s obsession with a lover from her past takes her to a dark, disturbing place.
Well-crafted, provocative and powerfully written, this volume is the work of a master at the top of her game.

Draggy 
August 27, 2011
Not the best book in the world as it was too long and draggy for me and I found myself yawning just to keep awake while trying to read the stories. After about five, I gave up and ended up giving book away to a friend. sorry, not my cup of tea!!
