A review by marystevens
Debriefing: Collected Stories by Susan Sontag

2.0

She writes well, we all know that, but these seem to be exercises in writing techniques, a sort of tour de force. I was put off by the precious and precocious initial story about a high schooler’s tea with Thomas Mann. The second story was incomprehensible snippets about a trip to China I think. The last was about the friends attending an early victim of AIDS. I stuck with it for the sake of my book club but I’m not motivated to read the rest.
