In her published writings Sontag reveals little about her private life; the journals represent the shadow side of that desire for privacy, unflinchingly honest, startling in their self-revelation. This selection from her early diaries, edited (with some reluctance) by her son, David Rieff, shows the way she began the process of transforming herself into America's leading intellectual. https://www.penguin.co.uk/books/176/176241/reborn/9780141045191.html ER -
