Nietzsche and Joyce Carol Oates explores the American novelist's
The Wonderland Quartet through a reading of the German
philosopher's seminal works. In the four books of The Wonderland
Quartet - A Garden of Earthly Delights (1967), Expensive People
(1968), the National Book Award-winning Them (1969), and Wonderland
(1971) - Oates aestheticizes cultural experiments after the
Nietzschean proclamation of "God is dead" permeated American
culture from about 1950. What may be delineated as Oates's original
literary scholarship is her ability to reflect on the cultural
reception of Walter Kaufmann's work on Nietzsche in her fiction,
while enabling her characters to find their purposes. Echoing
Nietzsche, her characters are not limited by normative standards.
The author's narrative techniques allow her characters' polyphonic
voices to dominate the flow.
