"A wrenching and intimate autobiography, Sita is an unsparing, moment-by-moment record of the fading of love, with all of its agony and false-dawn respites. For the first time, the original text of Sita is accompanied by the first of Millett's moving prose elegies, written after Sita committed suicide. This lament lends new resonance to the original text and gives the reader a fuller understanding of the mercurial devotion that bound the two women to each other.

This reissue also features a new preface by the author."--BOOK JACKET.

Work Description

Sita is a woman of temperament, wit, artistry and power. Foreign, seductive, full of contradiction.

For her, Kate Millett was willing to hazard her art, her feelings, her life. To continue to love even when she knew the time for loving was long past.

With total honesty, she relates the fascinating account of her obsession with the woman, Sita. And with beauty and sensitivity, she evokes for us the terrible - and familiar - sadness of the end of love.
