## Description

''The ultimate Camp statement: it''s good because it''s awful.'' These two classic essays were the first works of criticism to break down the boundaries between ''high'' and ''low'' culture, and made Susan Sontag a literary sensation. Penguin Modern: fifty new books celebrating the pioneering spirit of the iconic Penguin Modern Classics series, with each one offering a concentrated hit of its contemporary, international flavour. Here are authors ranging from Kathy Acker to James Baldwin, Truman Capote to Stanislaw Lem and George Orwell to Shirley Jackson; essays radical and inspiring; poems moving and disturbing; stories surreal and fabulous; taking us from the deep South to modern Japan, New York''s underground scene to the farthest reaches of outer space.

Review: Camp is camp - The beautiful world of Camp explained perfectly. Great book for art historians, fashion designers, or those interested in the art form.
Review: Statement Piece and a Good Read! - Full-stop: I do not like reading. However, I’m fascinated by the concept of camp and when I heard of this book I had to get it! It is more of an essay-style read so it’s quite analytical, but if you’re interested in the content it’s going to be a fun read regardless. Not going to lie, I understand camp itself in a totally different way now.

Full-stop: I do not like reading. However, I’m fascinated by the concept of camp and when I heard of this book I had to get it!
