Sobre este artículo
NY: FSG, 1966. First edition. Hardcover. Very good/Very good. Signed by Sontag on the the half-title page and dated "Feb 6, 1966, Hartford." Uncommon signed. Her classic collection of essays, a finalist for the National Book Award. A review in The New York Times upon the book's release called it "a ponderable, vivacious, beautifully living and quite astonishingly American book," and Sontag remains one of our most revered contemporary essayists.
White cloth, black endpapers. A very good copy with light browning to board edges and toning to pages, as well as the unobtrusive remains of a former bookplate on the half-title page; in a very good or better jacket with light rubbing and a few short tears to the upper edge of the rear panel.

Sinopsis
Against Interpretation and Other Essays is a collection of essays by Susan Sontag which was published in 1966. It includes some of Sontag's best-known works, including "On Style", "Notes on 'Camp'", and the titular essay "Against Interpretation". In the last, Sontag argued that in the new critical approach to aesthetics the spiritual importance of art is being replaced by the emphasis on the intellect.

Sobre Rural Hours
Rural Hours (formerly Wood + River = Books, est. 2019) specializes in ecology, natural history, nature writing, the environment, environmental literature, and contemporary essay, with a special passion for association copies and notable inscriptions. We draw our name from the popular-but-then-forgotten book by Susan Fenimore Cooper (published in 1850), generally considered the first work of environmental creative nonfiction by a woman in the U.S. We are interested in challenging and expanding the canon of environmental literature and finding books that tell remarkable stories and illuminate the tradition of writing about place and natural history.
