Susan Sontag

Never thought of her as any sort of model, but this sentence gives me pause to reconsider:  "Sontag continued her intense and sustained engagement with canonical novelists, philosophers, and poets such as Jeremy Bentham, Joseph Conrad, Fyodor Dostoyevsky, André Gide, Hermann Hesse, Gerard Manley Hopkins, Henry James, Franz Kafka, Søren Kierkegaard, Thomas Mann, Friedrich Nietzsche, Rainer Maria Rilke, Anthony Trollope, and Leo Tolstoy."
