  A kind of autobiography, both personal and critical, Roland Barthes is an account of that part of Barthes's life - his tastes, his childhood, his body, his education, his passions and regrets - that went into his work. `Readers have come to expect nothing less than brilliance from France's most important writer-intellectual since Sartre. What they mightn't have expected from Roland Barthes is such naked originality and generosity of speculation. Barthes on Barthes nourishes, disturbs, enthralls.' - Susan Sontag
