A long and rather odd book by Joyce Carol Oates. It is an odd mix of historic fiction and gothic horror set in early 20th century Princeton. Cars have replaced some of the horse-drawn carriages and a young Upton Sinclair is advocating for Socialism but at the same time there are ghosts, the devil and a curse that befalls the rich and powerful families of the town. I can't say it really gripped me but I still had to find out what happened at the end.
