Translated from the French by Christine Schwartz Hartley and Anna Moschovakis. COMMENTARY is a narrative-hovering between the genres of memoir, theory, and fiction-about a female artist whose abandonment by a lover precipitates a refiguration of her ideas on life, love and art. Sauvageot died, after many stints in sanatoriums, at the age of 34. Commentaire was highly prasied in its time by Paul Claudel, Paul Valery, Andre Gide, Charles Du Bos, Rene Crevel ou Clara Malraux. This edition is co-translated by Christine Schwartz Hartley (African Psycho) and Anna Moschovakis (The Jokers, The Possession).
