Stillman unfolds disco's vectors of power with a historian's insight and a novelist's eye for satirical nuance.

The focus of The Last Days of Disco is a psychologically authentic and painfully parasitic female relationship.

Sharp-eyed and charming.

Stillman’s familiar portraits of the young and overly privileged, with their social cruelty, ripples with bursts of extravagant verbal wit, making passive-aggressive poetry out of what seem like prosaic lifestyles.
