64. Salon | Sneak Peeks
    March 97 review by Elizabeth Judd.  
    http://www.salon.com/march97/sneaks/sneak970311.html
    
    Extractions: Doubleday, 212 pages, Fiction is the ideal lover a blank slate, a cipher upon whom we can inscribe our own idiosyncratic desires and whims? That's what Jonathan Lethem suggests in his latest novel, a sly send-up of academia and a funny tale of passion gone awry. Philip Engstrand, a professor who's nicknamed the Dean of Interdiscipline for studying his fellow professors, is in love and living with Alice Coombs, a particle physicist specializing in "the pursuit of tiny nothingness." When Alice and her colleagues create a void that's a portal to a new universe, Alice projects her private desires onto her creation, dubbed "Lack." Soon, Alice is romantically obsessed with Lack and Philip is history. Invisible and silent, Lack resides in the eye of the beholder, "his" chief appeal a sublime indifference to his audience. Lack keeps his admirers guessing, demonstrating marked and unfathomable preferences for specific objects; he accepts a salad spinner, a pomegranate and a lab cat, while rejecting calamine lotion, a photo of the Rosetta stone and, ultimately, Alice herself. To his credit, Lethem views Lack as an actual character, not a literary trope. Although his explanation of how Lack works is pseudo-scientific double-talk worthy of Cliffy the mailman on "Cheers," Lethem doesn't retreat from his own silliness, devoting the final chapters to Philip's confrontation with the void.

    by Thomas Stolmar and Alexander Laurence.  
    http://www.altx.com/int2/jonathan.lethem.html
    
    Extractions: Thomas Stolmar and Alexander Laurence get bookish with Jon Alexander Laurence : You were originally a painter, so I'd like to know when did you have thoughts of being a writer? Jonathan Lethem : I was cultivating this whole covert writing thing as I was going to Bennington College. I was reading voraciously. I had already been working at used bookstores, which was a way to read a lot of different books. I was reading all sorts of books at the time: Laurence Durrell, Norman Mailer, Philip K. Dick, J. G. Ballard, and other stuff that I ended up not liking like The Beats, which I read throughout High School. I was obsessed with Kerouac and Burroughs. I was reading detective novels, mysteries, and science fiction at the same time. It was all wide open for me. I have never been able to read anything besides fiction effectively which is why I was never a very good student. I don't think abstractly very well. I think in terms of situations, metaphors, and images. On the strength of all the reading I did in High School and college, I think that I'm still the best read person in fiction that I know. That was what I was doing instead of doing well in school. AL : You went to Bennington at the same time that Bret Easton Ellis, Jill Eisenstad, and Donna Tartt were there, all who went on to write novels as well. How did that environment influence you?

    Extractions: Goodreads Reviews of As She Climbed Across The Table view more There was a ten- or twenty-year period when literary fiction writers started to pay a lot of attention to science writing: Stoppard read Gleick's more... Very clever central conceit – a man loses his lover to a black hole of nothingness – executed stylishly. Lethem has enough tricks up his sleeve to maintain the tongue-in-cheek blend of love story and scientific wankery. We could have done without the academic frat party scene (a profe...

70. Amnesia Moon
    Essay by L.Timmel Duchamp.  
    http://ltimmel.home.mindspring.com/moon.html
    
    Extractions: In Jonathan Lethem's Amnesia Moon Amnesia Moon could be described, therefore, as a fable of learning to live in the flesh and love it: in total, flagrant opposition to the carnephobia that most male-authored cyberpunk, for instance, so notably celebrates. Those wanting to read the book as nailed-down science fiction have the option of choosing from among the tropes on the menu the one best able to explain the fracturing of reality into many separate versions: "The hives," Vance said. "They're growing inside all the houses. Humans have to tend them, bring them food, trinkets, little offerings. The place where the aliens come from, the dominant species is some sort of hive intelligence, and the bigger animals serve as their arms and legs. So that's what they did to us when they landed. Turned us into animals. And they don't really give a damn about the condition of their animals, not when there are so many of them. "Listen: why do you think the world got broken up?

72. �Knarre Mit Begleitmusik� � Lethems Chandler-Hommage An Die Zukunft
    Lethems Chandler-Hommage an die Zukunft. Kurze Rezension des Science Fiction-Krimis.  
    http://www.quickshots.homepage.t-online.de/qs/qs-lethem.htm
    
    Extractions: Quickshot - Schnellschuss vom 05.08.2001 Quickshot-Index �Knarre mit Begleitmusik� � Lethems Chandler-Hommage an die Zukunft Die bei Heyne erschienene �bersetzung ist leider vergriffen . Gebrauchte Exemplare sind zu teilweise ziemlich hohen Preisen erh�ltlich. Zu Marketingzwecken wird bei den verschiedensten Krimiautoren immer wieder von einem neuen Chandler geredet � meist zu Unrecht. (So hat meines Erachtens auch Robert Parkers bewusster Versuch von 1989, Chandlers Poodle Springs-Fragment zu Ende zu schreiben, zu einem eher lauwarmen Produkt gef�hrt. Dies jedoch nur nebenbei.) Ein Autor, der es verdient, ein w�rdiger Nachfolger von Chandler genannt zu werden, ist zweifellos Jonathan Lethem mit Gun, with Occasional Music , einer 1994 erschienenen Mischung aus pessimistischer Zukunftsvision und Roman Noir. Diese Welt der Zukunft ist gekennzeichnet durch evolutionierte Tiere, ein System von auf kleinen Plastikkarten gespeicherten Karmapunkten f�r jedermann und Make , eine legalisierte Drogenmischung, die das Dasein ertr�glicher gestalten soll. Kinder werden sofort nach Geburt genetisch manipuliert und dadurch zu

74. Who Killed Brooklyn? - Jonathan Lethem - Salon.com
    Article by Lorin Stein with emphasis on Lethem s latest release Motherless Brooklyn (the 1999 National Book Critics Circle Award nominee, and soon-to-be feature film starring Edward Norton), but it also contains good background information on many of his works.

    Extractions: Communities OAS_AD('Top'); Editor: Sarah Hepola Updated: Today Topic: Thursday, Sep 23, 1999 12:00 ET By Lorin Stein I f you've heard of Jonathan Lethem, you probably heard about him the way I did, from a friend. The friend who turned me on to Lethem's last novel, "Girl in Landscape," did it the best way just opened the book and made me read the first paragraph: Mother and daughter worked together, dressing the two young boys, tucking them into their outfits. The boys slithered under their hands, delighted, impatient, eyes darting sideways. They nearly groaned with momentary pleasure. The four were going to the beach, so their bodies had to be sealed against the sun. The boys had never been there. The girl had, just once. She could barely remember. Since I first read those sentences, I have loaned or given copies of "Girl" to my little sister, my boss, a famous writer I admire, several colleagues, two foreign visitors and many friends. Most of them had never heard of Lethem for the same reason that you probably haven't not because he hasn't written much (Lethem has written five novels and one book of stories) but because until now he has written only science fiction and, by and large, science fiction doesn't get reviewed in the mainstream press. That will probably change with Lethem's new novel

    Extractions: Communities OAS_AD('Top'); Editor: King Kaufman Updated: Today Topic: Friday, Jan 21, 2000 11:00 ET By David Bowman I 'm introduced to Lowell Handler. He gets close invades my body space and touches my shoulder. Not in a friendly way. Or authoritatively. His touch is just weird. The man himself seems normal to a point. His speech is OK. He's in his early 40s. He isn't short, but there is something slightly gnome-like about him. Especially when he makes his little honking noises. Lowell Handler touches my shoulder several more times as we walk into a conference room up in the Salon offices off Times Square in Manhattan. I set up my tape recorder on the table and Lowell Handler touches this Sony instead of my shoulder. I've been reacting to his actions like the worldly cosmopolitan that I am. I've ignored him. I know that Lowell Handler freelance photographer, college teacher, author suffers from Tourette's syndrome. This is why he must do what he does. "How many people suffer from TS?" I ask. He answers by saying, "How many people have it and how many suffer?"

78. Bold Type: Excerpt By Jonathan Lethem

    Extractions: The bar was tame and suburban, a fifties cocktail lounge not yet refurbished by student irony. It was nearly empty, a weekend place on a week night. I'd picked it for its distance from campus. But when I flagged the waitress it was a girl I recognized, a dizzy undergraduate, costumed in yellow apron. Her eyes met mine and I froze her with a look of dread, willing her not to blow my cover.
