Motion Sickness - Softcover

Praise for Lynne Tillman

"One of America's most challenging and adventurous writers." ? Guardian

"Lynne Tillman has always been a hero of mine?not because I 'admire' her writing, (although I do, very, very much), but because I feel it. Imagine driving alone at night. You turn on the radio and hear a song that seems to say it all. That's how I feel..." ? Jonathan Safran Foer

"Like an acupuncturist, Lynne Tillman knows the precise points in which to sink her delicate probes. One of the biggest problems in composing fiction is understanding what to leave out; no one is more severe, more elegant, more shocking in her reticences than Tillman." ? Edmund White

?Anything I’ve read by Tillman I’ve devoured.” ? Anne K. Yoder, The Millions

"If I needed to name a book that is maybe the most overlooked important piece of fiction in not only the 00s, but in the last 50 years, [American Genius, A Comedy] might be the one. I could read this back to back to back for years." ? Blake Butler, HTML Giant
