Tillman, Lynne
American Genius: A Comedy
Brooklyn, NY Soft Skull Press 2006 1933368446 / 9781933368443 Trade Paperback Fine
292 pp.; 21 cm. AS NEW. "This is what we'd get if Jane Austen were writing in 21st century America--a book that expands the possibilities of the national novel and of the female protagonist. Tillman brings into being a microcosm of American democracy, a scholarly colony functioning like Melville's Pequod, in which competing values--rationality and irrationality, generosity and selfishness, love and lust, shame and honor--compete with one another through a hilarious narrative, cycling through skin disease, chair design, Manifest Destiny--folded into the narrator's memories and emotional life, culminating, in Wagnerian fashion, in a supernatural event, offering escape, transcendence, or perhaps nothing. / Lynne Tillman, Professor/Writer-in-Residence in the Department of English at the University at Albany, is the author of five novels, three collections of short stories, one collection of essays and two other nonfiction books. She has collaborated often with artists and writes regularly on art and culture. Her novels include American Genius, A Comedy (2006), No Lease on Life (1998) which was a New York Times Notable Book of 1998 and a finalist for the National Book Critics Circle Award, Cast in Doubt (1992), Motion Sickness (1991), and Haunted Houses (1987). Absence Makes the Heart (1990) is her first collection of short stories; The Broad Picture (1997) is a collection of Tillman's essays which were published in literary and art magazines and journals. In 1995, Tillman's The Velvet Years: Warhol's Factory 1965-1967 was published with photographs by Stephen Shore; it presented narratives from Factory habituees as well as her critical introductory essay on Warhol, his art, and studio. Tillman is also the author of the nonfiction book The Life and Times of Jeannette Watson and Books & Co. (1999), a cultural and social history of a literary landmark, where writers and artists congregated for nearly 20 years. She has taught at Princeton and Bard College. Tillman is the Fiction Editor at Fence Magazine." - Publisher.

This Is Not It: Stories
New York D.A.P., Distributed Art Publishers 2002 1891024469 / 9781891024467 First Edition Hard Cover Fine Very Good Collectible
287 pp., col. illus.; 23 cm. Tight, clean copy. Dust jacket, with light edgewear, protected in a mylar book cover. "This is Not It is a collection of innovative and stand-alone writing that also engages and matches wits with some of the best contemporary art: work by Kiki Smith, Jane Dickson, Jessica Stockholder, Diller & Scofidio, Laura Letinsky, Peter Dreher, Roni Horn, Stephen Ellis, Juan Munoz, Vik Muniz, Silvia Kolbowski, Jeff Koons, James Welling, Aura Rosenberg, Barbara Ess, Barbara Kruger, Dolores Marat, Haim Steinbach, Gary Schneider, Marco Breuer, Stephen Prina, and Linder Sterling. Since 1982, acclaimed novelist Tillman has created these unique narratives that are a parallel universe to the contemporary art world. Maybe they're analogues or dialogues, maybe fictions inspired by art, maybe reflections, or meditations -- but whatever they're called, like Borges' fictions, they are their own worlds, too. Tillman has marked out terrain of her own, which this collection celebrates. Full of life and art, This is Not It is bold, subtle, and riotous." - Publisher.
