{"product_id":"sontag-and-kael-9781582433127","title":"Sontag and Kael","description":"\u003cb\u003eA witty and stylish assessment of the work of two icons of cultural criticism: Susan Sontag and Pauline Kael.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThough outwardly they had some things in common--they were both Westerners who came east, both schooled in philosophy, both secular Jews and both single mothers--they were polar opposites in temperament and approach. Seligman approaches both women through their widely discussed work. Kael practiced a kind of verbal jazz--exuberant, excessive, intimate, emotional and funny. Sontag is formal and rather icy. From the beginning it's clear where Seligman's sympathies lie: Sontag is a critic he reveres; but Kael is a critic he loves. But for all his reservations about Sontag, he considers both writers magnificent and his exploration of their differences results in this luminously written landmark of criticism.","brand":"Catapult","offers":[{"title":"STANDARD","offer_id":62275880485251,"sku":"9781582433127","price":16.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0907\/8456\/3587\/files\/9781582433127.jpg?v=1785538899","url":"https:\/\/shopcomics.eu\/products\/sontag-and-kael-9781582433127","provider":"Shop Comics EU","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
