His wild imagination spawned stories that would rank him with the greatest writers for Weird Tales.
Science Fiction, Fantasy & Horror:
The Best of 1999
While some of the choices made here are “shoo-ins” for collectors and must-haves for any fantasy aficionado, others are riskier choices, examples of the myriad possibilities available to anyone interested in the genre. Are there more Harry Potters out there?
A Conversation with Jonathan Lethem
Author of Gun with Occasional Music, Lethem is a one-man book show. He is a novelist, a bookseller and a collector. His genre-busting style is all his own, but the writers he credits with influencing his work are as diverse as Franz Kafka and Raymond Chandler. We follow along as he heads down one of his fascinating paths.
Books into Film
