Sontag: Her Life (Paperback)
Susan Sontag was our last great literary star. Her brilliant mind, political activism and striking image made her an emblem of the seductions – and the dangers – of the twentieth-century world. Her writing on art and politics, feminism and homosexuality, celebrity and style, medicine and drugs, Fascism and Freudianism, Communism and Americanism, reflected the conflicted meanings of a most conflicted word: modernity. She was there when the Cuban Revolution began and the Berlin Wall came down, in Vietnam under American bombardment, in wartime Israel. Sontag tells these stories and examines the work upon which her reputation was based, exploring the private woman hidden behind the formidable public face.

Carmen (Paperback)
Carmen the inspiration for one of the world’s most popular operas ;is a story about the dark forces that lurk beneath the ade of civilization, where passions are brutal and erotic love is seductive and sinister. When Don Jos; meets a gypsy woman, he has no idea that his chance encounter with the &; pretty witch&; will have disastrous consequences. With her magic and her malevolent spirit, Carmen exerts a powerful charm on the unsuspecting Don Jos, who is drawn into a seedy underworld of bandits and smugglers exploited and humiliated, until he is driven to the ultimate revenge. In Carmen, Prosper introduced a literary archetype: the femme fatale, who uses her sexuality and mystery to ensnare and ultimately destroy the weak, unsuspecting man. It appears here with The Venus of Ille, a brilliant tale of the supernatural. Prosper is a noted French novelist, playwright, and short story writer.
