Contents/Summary

Summary

Mythologized and misunderstood, lauded and loathed, a girl from the suburbs who became a proud symbol of cosmopolitanism, Susan Sontag left a legacy of writing that forms an indispensable key to modern culture. With hundreds of interviews conducted from Maui to Stockholm and from London to Sarajevo, this is the first book based on the writer's restricted archives and on access to many people who have never before spoken about Sontag.
