| 520 | |a What{u2019}s a novelist supposed to do with contemporary culture? And what{u2019}s contemporary culture sup{u00AD}posed to do with novelists? In The Ecstasy of Influence , Jonathan Lethem, tangling with what he calls the 2white elephant3 role of the writer as public intellectual, arrives at an astonishing range of answers. A constellation of previously published pieces and new essays as provocative and idiosyncratic as any he{u2019}s written, this volume sheds light on an array of topics from sex in cinema to drugs, graffiti, Bob Dylan, cyberculture, 9/11, book touring, and Marlon Brando, as well as on a shelf{u2019}s worth of his literary models and contemporaries: Norman Mailer, Paula Fox, Bret Easton Ellis, James Wood, and oth{u00AD}ers. And, writing about Brooklyn, his father, and his sojourn through two decades of writing, Lethem sheds an equally strong light on himself. | ||
