Description
xThis book brings together the great majority of Barthes's interviews that originally appeared in French in Le Figaro Litt駻aire, Cahiers du Cin駑a, France-Observateur, L'Express, and elsewhere. Barthes replied to questions--on the cinema, on his own works, on fashion, writing, and criticism--in his unique voice; here we have Barthes in conversation, speaking directly, with all his individuality. These interviews provide an insight into the rich, probing intelligence of one of the great and influential minds of our time.
