At the Same Time - Tapa dura

I know of no other intellectual who is so clear-minded, with a capacity to link, to connect, to relate (Carlos Fuentes The Times)

One of the most brilliant minds and sharpest pairs of eyes of her generation (Observer)

Susan Sontag’s incisive intelligence, expressive brilliance and deep curiosity about art, politics and the writer’s responsibility to the world have secured her place as one of the most important thinkers and writers of the twentieth century. At the Same Time gathers sixteen essays written in the last years of Sontag’s life, which reflect on the personally liberating nature of literature, and on political activism as an ethical duty, and boldly address the dilemmas of post-9/11 America. A passionate, compelling work from an American writer at the height of her powers.
