Rape: A Love Story by Joyce Carol Oates

Genre: Fiction

About: A story of the brutality and cowardice that overloads the city of Niagara Falls in the aftermath of an attack on a woman and her young daughter.

My Review: Absolutely heart-breakingly beautiful. You can sense the rapport between reader and character as they tell their story and pour out their feelings. Wonderfully "touching".

My Rating: 4.5/5

Quote: "..that poor girl, the daughter. They didnt rape her, too,did they?"
