The production values are impeccable: Pristine-white archival stock paper handsome brown cloth boards invaluable Index and other Gender and Culture titles appended at the end. Without DJ as issued. Presents "The Scandal of Susan Sontag". All-new essays that collectively assess the achievement legacy and controversy that continue to surround Susan Sontag's "scandalous" career. Even more than a sober assessment the collection is valuable in the sense that all of the contributors are also trying in their own way to continue Sontag's unfinished work pointing to its unrealized possibilities and implications. More than seven years after her untimely death the most cursory glance at printed commentary and blogs on Susan Sontag shows just how passionately people still feel about her work for or against or somewhere in-between never indifferent. While she was a cultural icon in her lifetime that enviable stature was always under relentless attack from critics and detractors that her excruciating final bout with cancer and subsequent death did nothing to soften mellow or dissipate. "Yields new insights on a most complex sensibility. The contributors accomplish this with sophisticated admiration with originality and with wit" Publishers Weekly . Sontag was a lot more nimble and shrewd than her enemies hence their frustration with her continuing relevance and their own "footnote" irrelevance . She always insisted on her right to keep an open mind to change her mind and therefore to never let anyone not even herself ever have The Last Word. If Harold Bloom was our sage our true educator-guide to life on every page the voice of age and wisdom Sontag was our intellectual our provocative questioner about life in every line the voice of a human being's evolving and ecstatic engagement with literature and the arts. An absolute "must-have" title for Susan Sontag collectors. <b><i> This title is a contemporary classic. This is one of few copies of the First Hardcover Edition/First Printing still available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean crisp and bright a pristine beauty. A scarce copy thus. </b></i> Winner of the MacArthur Genius Grant the National Book Critics Circle Award in 1977 for "On Photography" the National Book Award in 2000 for "In America" and the Jerusalem Prize in 2001. Shimon Peres in awarding the Jerusalem Prize described Sontag as "one of the world's finest writers and greatest minds". One of the most influential and important writer-intellectuals of the 20th century. A fine copy. SEE ALSO OTHER SUSAN SONTAG TITLES IN OUR CATALOG. ISBN 0231149166.
