Synopsis
"The book neither sympathizes with its subject nor trashes her. A kind of semiruthless, semi-good-natured impersonality prevails throughout....This book never penetrates the glazed surface of Sontag's appearance or the formal character of her work....[However] many interviews were conducted with friends and enemies alike, the reader is left knowing that a wall still stands behind which Susan Sontag lurks, undetected and unknown." ―Vivian Gornick, Salon, 08/01/2000

From the Author
The first independent biography of the NYC institution
We knew from the outset that this biography would encounter fierce opposition from Sontag and her circle--and it did... With the strong support of our publisher, WW Norton, we were able nonetheless to produce an independent account of New York literary life and of one of its most celebrated and controversial makers.
Synopsis
Delves beneath the surface to examine the forces that made Sontag an international icon, exploring her public persona and private passions, including the strategies behind her meteoric rise to fame and her political moves.
