A propos de ce titre

Synopsis

In Lynne Tillman's collection of 20 years' worth of important and compelling short stories and novellas, the protagonists seduce you into their lives and thoughts. Engaging, funny, elegant and ironic, Tillman takes the reader to new heights of wit and meaning through staccato phrases, grammatical twists, and sensuous language. Familiar words of honesty, deceit, dark humour, pleasure, pain, confusion, dependence, love and lust each play decisive roles in her believable fictions. Illustrated throughout with the work of some of today's finest artists.
