The time is now, and Ezekiel Hooper Stark is 38. He's a cultural anthropologist, an ethnographer of family photographs, a wry speculator about images. From years as a child, his own family's idiosyncrasies, perversities, and pathologies propel Zeke, until love lost sends him spiraling uncontrollable in Europe. Back the USA, he finds sudden solace in the image of your notable 19th-century relative, Clover Hooper Adams. Zeke embarks on a job, Men in Prices, concentrating his anthropological lens on his own kind: the "New Man", given birth to under the hallmark of feminism. All the old types of masculinity are busted. How are you different from your daddy? Zeke asks his male subjects. What do you expect from women? What does Zeke expect from himself? And exactly what will the listener expect of Zeke - is he a Don Quixote, Holden Caulfield, Underground Man, or Stranger? Kaleidoscopic and encyclopedic, comic, tragic, and philosophical, Men and Apparitions showcases Lynne Tillman not only as a brilliantly original novelist but also as you of our own most prominent modern-day thinkers on skill, culture, and population.
