The best "voices" I've ever read.

形式:マスマーケット
As a creative writing teacher and an author myself, I recommend this book to all those aspiring writers who want to learn characterization. Maynard, I feel, has the best ear in the business for dialogue, and I stand in awe of what she has done in this book. She has chosen to evolve her plot via a series of small monologues spoken by the various characters, and the result is riveting. Here you see clearly that every character has their own agenda, and yet in telling their version of the truth, the reader is able to piece together what actually occurred. An utterly masterful job! Characters are drawn by not only WHAT they say, but HOW they say it. Here, diction and word choice are handled with such delicacy that it left me stunned. Her teenagers speak like teenagers (yet are distinct, too, one from another), and although her cast of characters is large, never do the individuals become stock characters. They always retain the uniqueness of the individual. -- Patricia Anthon

A GOOD NOVELIZATION OF THE PAM SMART STORY
2000/9/2
By BeatleBangs1964
- (Amazon.com)
形式:マスマーケット
There is no doubt about it. This story screams Pam & Greg Smart at you. The infamous teacher who got her high school lover to kill her husband takes a starring role in this book. Pam Smart is called "Suzanne Marretto," and her tastes run to the high school crowd.
Suzanne convinces her underage lover to kill for her and he does so willingly. She teams up with the lover, his friend and a lonely, overweight girl who has not found her niche among her peers.
Suzanne did some incredibly stupid things. For example, she videotapes the kids hanging out at her house after her husband is killed; she has sex with the young boy while the girl waits downstairs. It is like she wants to be caught and is waiting to be called on her bizarre behavior.
Joyce Maynard did a sterling job of telling this story and it is an honor to her writing prowess that this work reappeared in movie form with a very stellar cast.
Joyce Maynard is here to stay. I have loved her works since I was in high school and many of her articles have appeared in TV Guide and other mainstream magazines. She really has a flair for place, voice and character development.

a scathing satire of our tv obsessed culture

Anyone who would read this book and think it was just a novelization of the Pam Smart story probably watches too many movies of the week on LifetimeTV. This book takes the idea of what happened in the Smart case and uses it as a skeleton to write a sharp and darkly funny FICTIONALIZED look at our society's obsession with television and celebrity.When this book was turned into a movie, a local t.v. station ran an interview with Pam Smart who was uspet about her portrayal in the film. It wouldn't have come as such a surprise to her if she had bothered to read the book. And why would she be upset if she didn't care about fame (or rather infamy)? Don't read this book and wonder how much of it is about Pam Smart but read it wonder how much of it is about our country, our neighbors and ourselves.
