Content descriptions
Summary, etc.: | Curated by the author, Thrilled to Death is the definitive entry point for both established fans and new readers alike. These stories collect a bold, playful, and eclectic ensemble of Tillman's Borgesian fictions that span decades and traverse themes of sex, death, memory, and anxiety. With argumentative wit, Tillman's meditations and reflections on art, politics, and culture are animated by deliciously paradoxical characters who desire and fret in turn, and who are imbued with searing intelligence and dolorous ambivalence-- Provided by publisher. |
