Lara Feigel

Benjamin Moser, biographer of a great twentieth-century thinker, and Lara Feigel, co-author of a biography on Susan Sontag, discuss Sontag's life and legacy. They explore the complexities of Sontag's work and personal life, the challenges of writing a biography, and Sontag's impact during the Bosnian war. They also touch on topics such as archival research, the role of women intellectuals, and the absence of role models for girls in the 1960s.
