Description
Susan Sontag was one of the twentieth century's most towering figures. Her brilliant mind and striking image made her an emblem of the seductions - and the dangers - of modernity. This biography draws on hundreds of interviews conducted with people who knew her, including Annie Leibovitz, as well as access to Sontag's restricted archives. It is a deeply personal portrait of a complex and conflicted woman, exploring both her public activism and private face. Through her writing on art and politics, feminism and homosexuality, celebrity and style, medicine and drugs, Fascism and Freudianism, Communism and Americanism, Sontag reflected the conflicted meanings of modernity.
