Susan Sontag. The Woman Who Changed the Culture of the 20th Century. Biography by the Pulitzer Prize Winner 2020

Susan Sontag, an American literary critic, theater and film director, became a true reflection of the era, a prism through which we view the last century, a legend of her generation. The scale of her personality is inspiring, her multifacetedness... captivates and raises denial. Sontag wrote philosophical and critical essays, spoke at the barricades in Sarajevo, staged a play by Beckett, appeared in a Woody Allen film, and was closely associated with Joseph Brodsky and Andy Warhol. Her life is an endless inner search for the boundary between art and the artificial, metaphor and reality, truth and falsehood. Benjamin Moser's book is a monumental work that took seven years to create. The author meticulously gathered pieces of Sontag's life story, interviewing about 600 people in the course of his research, including Susan's son David Riff and photographer Annie Leibovitz. Published in the fall of 2019 and already a bestseller on Amazon, "Susan Sontag. The Woman Who Changed the Culture of the 20th Century. Biography" tells about all the facets of a woman who was a true phenomenon in American and world culture.
