Illness as Metaphor and AIDS and Its Metaphors by Susan Sontag
3.0
life is myth! bit of an anticlimactic ending
i do find utility in anthropomorphizing public health crises (covid-19 as the enemy vs we the entire nation, scientists and doctors on the 'frontlines'), as opposed to personal lives (cancer as the enemy vs susan sontag, privately). like the difference b/w talking about viruses using metaphors, and the disease being a metaphor for something?
