From award-winning novelist and cultural critic Lynne Tillman Thrilled to Death is a collection of selected stories across the career of America’s most audacious writer Among the vanguard of American literary writers Lynne Tillman’s work has defied categorization throughout her legendary career—a singular body of work that both redefined and reimagined the short story form entirely.  Curated by the author Thrilled to Death is the definitive entry point for both established fans and new readers alike. These selected 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. Describing Tillman's writing Colm Tóibín says: “Her style has both tone and undertone it attempts to register the impossibility of saying very much but it insists on the right to say a little. So what is essential is the voice itself its ways of knowing and unknowing.”
