人们评论说,欧茨的魅力不是她发掘那么多的时间和精力来写作,也不是她令人羡慕地轻松地从一种风格转到另一种风格,而是她写得如此之好。欧茨的作品题材广泛,"在美学上也包含了各种各样的作风。"(董鼎山语)她的小说兼有现实主义、自然主义、超现实主义、现代主义风格。因此对她的小说予以重视并进行探讨显得很有必要。
It may seem odd that a writer whose work is so often associated with the violence ?grotesque .Yet both aggression and contemplative withdrawal have a place in the writing of Joyce Carol Oates .She is concerned with the roles and responsibility of an artist in handling the 'real 'world .Joyce Carol Oates is undoubtedly one of the most prolific writes of today ,but all she has written so far may will be just a prelude to the full blossoming of her talents .
