"For decades, Gilbert Sorrentino has remained a unique figure in our literature. He reminds us that fiction lives because artists make it. . . . To the novel-everyone's novel-Sorrentino brings honor, tradition and relentless passion."-Don DeLillo "Possessing both the grace of James Joyce and the snap and crackle of Tom Wolfe, Sorrentino] is a must-read for those who fancy fiction served on wry."-"Booklist" "Far from being overly highbrow, Sorrentino manages to be thrillingly disorienting and, at the same time, quite accessible."-"BookSense.com" "Sorrentino has shown himself a perfect mimic of the information age, an era when all is revealed and no one can quite remember who appeared on the cover of last week's "People.""-"The Washington Post" A boyhood friend of the late Hubert Selby, Jr., teacher of Jeffrey Eugenides and two-time PEN/Faulkner Award finalist, Gilbert Sorrentino is an elder statesman of American literature who continues to transgress artistic boundaries. In "Lunar Follies," a bitingly satiric, imaginative tour of gallery, museum and performance art exhibitions, Sorrentino skewers the pretensions of the contemporary art world and its flailing attempts at relevance in a society whose attentions have strayed to the immediacy of pop culture. With precise comedic timing and an eye toward lascivious detail, Sorrentino is the perfect guide through this deliciously absurd world. Gilbert Sorrentino has published over 20 books of fiction and poetry, including the story collection, "The Moon in Its Flight," and the recent novel, "Little Casino," which was shortlisted for the 2003 PEN/Faulkner Award. After two decades on the faculty at Stanford University, he now lives in his native Brooklyn, New York.
