Ever since she took American culture by storm with the publication of her Notes on Camp in 1964, Susan Sontag has been a star. Her austere glamour has been a critical factor in her success, making her a role model for intellectual women, a sex symbol for brainy men. She has never ceased to fascinate the public: as brilliant wunderkind, bringing the latest in French thought to America; as sophisticated analyst of her own experience with cancer in Illness as Metaphor; as champion of free speech in the Rushdie Affair; as theater director in besieged Sarajevo; and, with the publication of The Volcano Lover, as best-selling historical novelist. Yet she has both courted that fascination and insisted on holding it at a distance, demanding control over her public image. This first -- and most definitely unauthorized -- biography delves beneath the surface to examine the forces that made Susan Sontag an international icon. Carl Rollyson and Lisa Paddock explore her public persona and private passions, including the strategies behind her meteoric rise to fame and her political moves and missteps. Above all, they show how the life of Susan Sontag reveals to us the way we live now.

读后感

桑塔格的论文集手头有些，但读她的文章总觉得里头透露一种强硬的气质。她态度鲜明，文笔犀利，然而我在受益的同时，却并不喜欢她。一个因聪明而咄咄逼人，随时准备用嘴和笔战斗的女人，还不巧美艳之极，真有点让人措手不及。本书以细节呈现这个风靡无数人的知识偶像的种种性格...

看完《死海搏击：母亲桑塔格最后的岁月》后，忍不注又重看了一遍这本传记，还是感佩这只“强硬之鸟”，这位斗士。说起来桑塔格也没有什么背景，童年和家庭对她而言是一片“荒漠”，她完全是靠自己的努力、智慧、个人魅力一步步走向自己的巅峰的，可以说她因为具有野心所以刻意...  

一个是纽约文化界风华绝代的知识偶像，一个是纽约时尚摄影界炙手可热的大腕：苏珊.桑塔格和安妮.莱博维兹。两个女人的传奇折射出美国社会的多元和文化包容性。看得出来她们的感情很深，安妮在苏珊被用担架抬上私人飞机去做最后手术的时候拍的照片令人动容，至今她指着苏...  

任何艺术家的书写都是个人的书写 在力图解释自己的同时试图令旁人清醒 可是悖论在此 解释有意义么 越解释越不清明 在此过程中又容易损毁愿意 一个人的世界本就难以令另一个人进入 倘若机缘凑巧 也大可放太大度 任其索取而已 时机不成熟 自会有某时豁然开朗醍醐灌顶触类旁通 殊...

I doubt the reader above if you really get it from Sontag's neat and enlightening parts, whereas you guys have too much focus on what you scorn, ignoring selectively what contradict to your impatience and non-marginal mind

too much euphemism, too much cliche
