AUTHOR
SUMMARY
"The autobiographical pieces of Incidents give us a new Barthes: not the famous writer who happens to be a gay man, but the gay man who happens to be a famous writer. This is the other face of fame: bravely endured soirÉes parisiennes during which the aging gay celebrity is constantly surrounded and almost never desired. D. A. Miller's brilliantly militant essay relieves us of the embarrassment such images might cause us. . . . His critical mÉmoires d'outre tombe should make it impossible for us ever again to ignore discreetly Barthes's homosexuality when we speak of his strength."--Leo Bersani, author of The Culture of RedemptionBarthes, Roland is the author of 'Incidents' with ISBN 9780520071049 and ISBN 0520071042.
