Description
Jonathan Lethem writes quirky, often experimental novels, short stories, and graphic novels employing a range of genres. Driven by interesting characters, emotional themes, and subtle insights, the plots engulf readers while the off-beat humor charms them. His realistic plots explore gritty urban settings, and his characters are very sexual beings who often resort to violence, though the sex and violence are not gratuitous or overly graphic. Essays published in book form and on his website examine the same themes that appear in his fiction. Start with: The Fortress of Solitude (fiction); The Disappointment Artist and Oher Essays (nonfiction)
