Review

"Oates is supremely atmospheric, erotic, and suspenseful in this virtuoso novel of identity, power, and moral reckoning." (starred review)

"At moments...you want to shout to the sky that Joyce Carol Oates is "a goldnish spot in the weariness of the world.'"

"[With] tight, seamless prose...[Joyce Carol Oates] succeeds in evoking the perilous complexity of a completely cultural integration, the faulty foundation of American life."

Publisher's note

The daughter of a German high school teacher who was forced to work as a gravedigger after immigrating to upstate New York, Rebecca begins a life-changing pilgrimage throughout America in the wake of a prejudice-motivated tragedy. 100,000 first printing.

Annotation

Born on the boat that carried her family away from Nazi Germany, Rebecca grows up under the shadow of her parents' tragic history, and in the confusion of youth finds herself romantically involved with a disreputable criminal.
