Strange and Brilliant
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
For the Roland Barthes fan--or any budding postmodernist--an absolute must read. Strange, often baffling, Barthes uses the "autobiographical" form to write what is part criticism, part poetry, part myth and part "true story"--if its not too unpostmodern to even use the word true. The title suggests it all--Barthes becomes his text, and vice-versa. Not a beach read, for sure, but very interesting nonetheless.
