Description

Susan Sontag was not only one of the most original and influential voices in American literature but also one of the most significant personalities of the twentieth century.

This volume brings together for the first time some of her most penetrating articles and essays, passionate and heretical texts addressing the major issues concerning modern women: beauty, aging, emancipation, sexuality, her resistance to the power of patriarchy, and more broadly, her position in a constantly changing world with few constants.
