The King of Weird by Joyce Carol Oates

“ Though in many of its aspects this visible world seems formed in love, the invisible spheres were formed in fright.” —Herman Melville, Moby Dick How mysterious, how unknowable and infinitely beyond their control must have seemed the vast wilderness of the New World to the seventeenth-century Puritan settlers!
