Susan Sontag
Host:
Where the Stress Falls (Farrar, Straus & Giroux)
Where does the stress fall in the life of a writer-intellectual? Susan Sontag
examines the difference between exploring the interior of a subject and
exploring the interior of the explorer. She speaks of ego-less
impersonality as a goal, while acknowledging the unfortunate
probability of self-revelation. (This interview will not air on KCRW because of special holiday
programming.)
