This title is a novel about a celebrated but reclusive author, Joshua Siegel. Young but in failing health, Siegel reluctantly admits that he can no longer live alone. He launches a search for an assistant and finds Alma, a young woman with blond hair and tattooed skin.
Review:
"Oates is onto something with the bruised, malleable figure of Alma..., and Joshua Seigl's own fluctuations between scholarly integrity and a consuming temperamental weakness make him one of Oates's most interesting recent characters. But THE TATTOOED GIRL is flawed by the insistent presences of Jet and Dmitri....Better-than-average Oates, all the same."
Kirkus, 04/01/2003
Review:"[I]n the world of THE TATTOOED GIRL, violence is ubiquitous; it rules. Hideous events occur with less psychological justification than they'd require in a Hollywood blockbuster...and the novel's bloodbath of a climax is frankly willful. It's difficult to tell, with a writer as talented as Oates, whether this willfulness is intentional. Perhaps the pointlessness--of violence, of prejudice--is after all precisely her point."
Sophie Harrison, New York Times Book Review, 07/13/2003
