The Professor

Angebote / Angebote:

From Terry Castle, the brilliant cultural commentator whom Susan Sontag called "the most expressive, most enlightening literary critic at large today, " comes a long-awaited collection of captivating personal essays. The title piece at the heart of the anthology—Castle's candid, wry, and rueful retelling of her romantic involvement with a female professor during graduate school—is a pitch-perfect recollection of the fiascoes of youth. Here, also, are classic Castle short works, including "Desperately Seeking Susan, " a droll and bittersweet account of her friendship with Sontag, "My Heroin Christmas, " a darkly humorous examination of addiction, her family and stepsiblings, and the late, great saxophonist Art Pepper, and the picaresque "Travels with My Mother, " a rollicking tour through lesbianism, art, and the difficult yet transcendent paintings of Agnes Martin.The Professor is Terry Castle at her best: utterly distinctive, wise, frank, and fearless.
