Men And Apparitions, Paperback / softback Book

Men And Apparitions Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

Ezekiel Hooper Stark is a cultural anthropologist nudging forty.

His interest is family snapshots. At home, he is absorbed by his own family's idiosyncrasies, perversities, and pathologies, until romantic betrayal sends him spiralling into a crisis.

All the old models of masculinity are broken. Zeke embarks on a new project, studying the 'New Man', born under the sign of feminism.

What do you expect from women? he asks his male subjects. What do you expect from yourself? Meanwhile, what will the reader make of Zeke is he enlightened, chauvinistic, or simply delusional?

Kaleidoscopic and encyclopaedic, comic, tragic, and philosophical, Men and Apparitions showcases Lynne Tillman not only as a brilliantly original novelist but also as one of our most prominent contemporary thinkers on art, culture and the politics of gender.
