Benjamin Moser and Arthur Japin not only share their lives, but also a fascination for the American writer Susan Sontag. She is the subject of Moser’s Pulitzer Prize-winning biography, while Japin’s novel, published this autumn, is about one of the most haunting episodes in her life. They join Melissa Giardina in conversation.
Arthur Japin achieved national and international recognition in 1997 with his debut novel The Two Hearts of Kwasi Boachi. The English-language film adaptation of his bestselling novel In Lucia’s Eyes is due out in 2024.
Benjamin Moser writes for Harper’s Magazine and The New York Times Book Review, among other titles. He is the author of internationally acclaimed biographies on Clarice Lispector and Susan Sontag. His book The Upside-Down World: Meetings with the Dutch Master was published in 2023.
