Contempt (New York Review Books Classics)
- Used Book in Good Condition
Contempt is a brilliant and unsettling work by one of the revolutionary masters of modern European literature. All the qualities for which Alberto Moravia is justly famousâ‚¬"his cool clarity of expression, his exacting attention to psychological complexity and social pretension, his still-striking openness about sexâ‚¬"are evident in this story of a failing marriage. Contempt (which was to inspire Jean-Luc Godard's no-less-celebrated film) is an unflinching examination of desperation and self-deception in the emotional vacuum of modern consumer society.
