Lynne Tillman's essays are irreverent, smart, funny: evidence of her playful, rebellious mind. They are collected together here for the first time. Her subjects range broadly and wildly, from Matisse and ?reading women?, to the issue of race in The Bodyguard, from Ray Charles' voice and lyrics to narrative theories, from cat therapy to sex, memory and death. An exceptional writer, Tillman takes the reader on an expansive tour of 20th century life and culture to unearth and enlighten its preoccupations, fears, and obsessions.
