| Synopsis: |
"Not only one of the frankest of autobiographies, but also a brilliantly written book, Leiris' "Manhood" mingles memories, philosophic reflections, sexual revelation, meditations on bullfighting, and the life-long progress of self-discovery." "Washington Post Book World " "Leiris writes to appall, and thereby to receive from his readers the gift of a strong emotion the emotion needed to defend himself against the indignation and disgust he expects to arouse in his readers." Susan Sontag, "New York Review of Books "" |
