Book Synopsis Contempt by : Alberto Moravia

Download or read book Contempt written by Alberto Moravia and published by New York Review of Books. This book was released on 2011-07-20 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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 famous—his cool clarity of expression, his exacting attention to psychological complexity and social pretension, his still-striking openness about sex—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.
