About the Book

"You know," she said, "someone else has gone missing." "You mean for a case?" "It's me," she said, too brightly. "Me." "You've gone missing? Aren't you right here?" The outdated noir narrative gets a radical feminist update in this fresh anthology featuring some of the world's most celebrated female authors. Here, noir queenpin Joyce Carol Oates has curated a wide range of stylistically diverse stories and poems that could not feel more timely. At times wickedly funny, slyly subversive and always gripping, this striking collection places the voices historically consigned to noir's edges front and centre. Edited by Joyce Carol Oates and including her own work, as well as that of Margaret Atwood, Valerie Martin, Aimee Bender, Edwidge Danticat, Sheila Kohler, S.A. Solomon, S.J. Rozan, Lucy Taylor, Cassandra Khaw, Bernice L. McFadden, Jennifer Morales, Elizabeth McCracken, Livia Llewellyn, Lisa Lim, and Steph Cha.

About the Author :
Joyce Carol Oates is the author of a number of works of fiction, poetry and nonfiction. She is the editor of New Jersey Noir and Prison Noir and a recipient of the National Book Award, the PEN America Lifetime Achievement Award, the National Humanities Medal, and a World Fantasy Award for Short Fiction. She lives in Princeton, New Jersey, and was recently inducted into the American Philosophical Society.

Review :
'The 15 stories and six poems in this slim yet weighty all-original noir anthology... are razor-sharp and relentless in their portrayal of life, offering snapshots of dysfunctional, everyday toil, and brief joy' - Publishers Weekly 'This collection enlivens... flattened archetypes by retelling the noir narrative from the new perspectives of teenage girls, women hired hands, and mothers.' - Book Riot 'Goes a long way towards supplying candidates for an emerging canon' - Kirkus Reviews
