Synopsis "El Primer Amor (in Spanish)"

Josie, cuya madre acaba de separarse, llega a un pequeño pueblo en el que conocerá a su tía (una mujer de implacables convicciones religiosas que hace valer su autoritarismo sobre su sobrina) y a su primo Jared (que estudia en el seminario). La fascinación que ejercerá sobre Josie su excéntrico primo la llevará a conocer algunos de los aspectos más crudos del amor carnal. Joyce Carol Oates lleva varios años sonando como una de las candidatas más firmes al Premio Nobel de Literatura, y es fácil que con relatos como El primer amor acabe por obtenerlo.
