Death Kit – self assembly required

(More props to Monty)
Susan Sontag, producer of self-indulgent overrated crap, died at the age of 71. She helped usher in the decades of cheese, with her essay Notes on Camp, and won the National Book Award for her novel The Volcano Lovers. Earlier works like Death Kit and On Photography got the above review from noted literary critic Crash Davis. She liked to stick it to the man at every opportunity, supporting Salman Rushdie, arguing that the Sept. 11, 2001 terrorist attacks were not cowardly, and telling the assembly at the Writers for Writers Award dinner that there were too many writers producing too much bad writing.
