I might do a more in-depth review later on, but for now I chose to do my review in my personal book journal. There's just a LOT that this book made me think about and a LOT of Sontag-praise that I'd be embarrassed to put on blast here. (How does she manage to make Art out of literary criticism while being meta and speaking on Art Itself and using that Art to make her Point at the end? like, what the hell?) I read an article recently where the author said they wished Sontag were alive to see her tear shit apart on twitter, and yeah, I feel that, but also, I wouldn't wish anyone to live through the hellscape we're all in now :/
