Alvarez, "has permeated Western culture like a dye that cannot be washed out." Although the aims of this compelling, compassionate book are broadly cultural and literary, the narrative is rooted in personal experience: it begins with a long memoir of Sylvia Plath, and ends with an account of the author's own sucide attempt. Within this dramatic framework, Alvarez launched his enquiry into the final taboo of human behavior, he traces changing attitues towards suicide from the perspective of literature. He follows the black thread leading from Dante through Donne and the romantic agony, to the Savage God at the heart of modern literature. - Publisher information 2299977 1971 The Savage God: A Study of Suicide total:97|5:28|4:38|3:26|2:5|1:0| 97 380 184 17 1006306 0393306577 9780393306576 75 14 3.92 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1180166202m/1006306.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1006306.The_Savage_God_A_Study_of_Suicide 3 0 false Fri Oct 23 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Fri Oct 16 19:21:07 -0700 2009 Thu Oct 29 19:34:42 -0700 2009 more...]]> 1006306 0393306577 9780393306576 75 14 3.92 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1180166202m/1006306.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1006306.The_Savage_God_A_Study_of_Suicide 3 1 false Sat Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 2000 Sat Dec 06 05:39:18 -0800 2008 Sat Dec 06 05:41:23 -0800 2008 more...]]> 1006306 0393306577 9780393306576 75 14 3.92 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1180166202m/1006306.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1006306.The_Savage_God_A_Study_of_Suicide 4 0 false Wed Sep 02 05:50:08 -0700 2009 Wed Sep 02 05:52:05 -0700 2009
