Description
“Start reading ‘Everything Is Nice,’ and, instantly, Reader, you will be someplace else, an odd atmosphere, an altered frame of mind," writes Lynne Tillman in her introduction to this issue of Electric Literature's Recommended Reading. “Jane Bowles’ writing dispatches you, Reader, to a place of otherness. You may sense being an other to yourself. Once inside one of her tales, there is no outside.”
About the
Jane Bowles has long had an underground reputation as one of the truly original writers of this century. Born in New York City in 1917, she lived in Tangier, Morocco, with her husband, Paul Bowles, from 1952 until her death in 1973.
About the Guest
Lynne Tillman's most recent book is a collection of stories, Someday This Will Be Funny. In January 2014 a new collection of essays, What Would Lynne Tillman Do? will be published by Richard Nash's Red Lemonade Press. She is currently writing a novel, along with, but slower than, everyone else.
About Recommended
Great authors inspire us. But what about the stories that inspire them? Recommended Reading, the latest project from Electric Literature, publishes one story every week, each chosen by a great author or editor. In this age of distraction, we uncover writing that's worth slowing down and spending some time with. And in doing so, we help give great writers, literary magazines, and independent presses the recognition (and readership) they deserve.
