SUMMARY:Writers on Writing: Lynne Tillman
DESCRIPTION:Lynne Tillman reads from and discusses her novels\, short stories and nonfiction. Her new book is Men and Apparitions (Soft Skull Press\, 2018). “Lynne Tillman has always been a hero of mine — not because I ‘admire’ her writing\, (although I do\, very\, very much)\, but because I feel it. Imagine driving alone at night. You turn on the radio and hear a song that seems to say it all. That’s how I feel.” — Jonathan Safran Foer. Free. \n  \n\nLocation: Humanities Building\, Room 211\n\n\nDirections: View on Google Maps\n\n  \nLynne Tillman \nTillman’s novel No Lease on Life was a finalist for a National Book Critics Circle Award in Fiction\, and her essay collection What Would Lynne Tillman Do? was a finalist for the National Book Critics Circle Award in Criticism. Tillman’s writing appears often in artists’ books and museum catalogs\, including\, most recently\, those of Raymond Pettibon\, Joan Jonas\, Cindy Sherman and Carroll Dunham. Tillman is a recipient of a Guggenheim Fellowship and a Creative Capital/Warhol Foundation grant for arts writing\, and is a professor and writer-in-residence at University of Albany. She also teaches in New York City’s School of Visual Arts\, in its art criticism and writing Master of Fine Arts program. \n\nWriters on Writing \nThe Creative Writing Department opens its Writers on Writing course to the public this spring.

SUMMARY:Peter Carey / A Long Way From Home
DESCRIPTION:The two-time Booker Prize-winning author now gives us a wildly exuberant\, wily new novel that circumnavigates 1954 Australia\, revealing as much about the country/continent as it does about three audacious individuals who take part in the infamous 10\,000-mile race\, the Redex Trial. \nIrene Bobs loves fast driving. Her husband is the best car salesman in southeastern Australia. Together they enter the Redex Trial\, a brutal race around the ancient continent\, over roads no car will ever quite survive. With them is their lanky\, fair-haired navigator\, Willie Bachhuber\, a quiz show champion and failed schoolteacher who calls the turns and creeks crossings on a map that will remove them\, without warning\, from the white Australia they all know so well. This is a thrilling high-speed story that starts in one way\, and then takes you someplace else. It is often funny\, more so as the world gets stranger\, and always a page-turner even as you learn a history these characters never knew themselves. \nSet in the 1950s\, this is a world every American will recognize: black\, white\, who we are\, how we got here\, and what we did to each other along the way. \nA Long Way from Home is Peter Carey’s late-style masterpiece. \n— \nPeter Carey is the author of thirteen previous novels. In addition to the Booker Prize\, his honors include the Commonwealth Writers’ Prize and the Miles Franklin Literary Award. Born in Australia\, he has lived in New York City for more than twenty-five years.
