“Pied Piper of Tucson” “Where Are You Going, Where Have You Been?”

Mara Bovsun’s article “Pied Piper of Tucson” reports on the crimes of Charles Schmid, Jr. in the 1960s. Joyce Carol Oates’ short story “Where Are You Going, Where Have You Been?” draws from Schmid’s life of crime to form the fictional character of Arnold Friend. Write an essay that analyzes how Oates adapts elements of Bovsun’s article through narrative techniques in a manner that builds mystery, tension, and/or suspense in this short story.
