Author's second book. "In Death Kit, Susan Sontag attempts to achieve those qualities of the nouveau-roman she has praised in her criticism; that "search for an infinite precision...narrow dehydrated subject-matter and cool microscopic style....A noble, serious try at a structuralist study of indeterminacy in an American setting, with many shrewd, startling moments, and that's about all." (Kirkus Reviews).
