Joyce Carol Oates Quotes

In This Way Unwittingly The Widow-to-Be Is Assuring Her Husband's Death - His Doom. Even As She Believes She Is Behaving Intelligently - "shrewdly" And "reasonably" - She Is Taking Him To A Teeming Petri Dish Of Lethal Bacteria Where Within A Week He Will Succumb To A Virulent Staph Infection - A "hospital" Infection Acquired In The Course Of His Treatment For Pneumonia. Even As She Is Fantasizing That He Will Be Home For Dinner She Is Assuring That He Will Never Return Home. How Unwitting, All Widows-to-Be Who Imagine That They Are Doing The Right Thing, In Innocence And Ignorance!
