Críticas:
"In "Death Kit "Susan Sontag has written a terrifying black novel with the fierce unsettling thrust of a Kafka-esque fable. It is a truly awesome book, forged from a stark in which staccato sentences and near-documentary observations are fused into a brilliantly sustained style."-"Boston Globe" "It seems an impertinence merely to recommend this book for its literary qualities." Death Kit" is an experience beyond definition, part novel, part thriller, part philosophy, part dream."-Douglas M. Davis, "The National Observer" ""Death Kit" is a strange and wonderful book, a ritual exorcising of modern terrors, a dream book of love and death . . . Sontag conjures up scenes of sordid everyday life that are as brutal and macabre as anything in Raymond Chandler or Nathaniel West."-Frederic Tuten, "Vogue" "This novel is 'real art'-disconcerting, absorbing, entertaining (in the Greek sense of the verb; to grip), and extremely unnerving.

Reseña del editor:
First published in 1967, Death Kit is a classic of modern fiction. Blending realism and dream, Susan Sontag's second novel offers a passionate exploration of the recesses of the American conscience.
The novel is a narrative of the suffering of Dalton 'Diddy' Harron, told through his own observations. He works in advertising for a microscope manufacturer, is thirty-three and divorced and a month ago tried to commit suicide. The haphazard events of his life, including killing a railway worker and falling in love with a blind girl, are brought to us through the lens of Diddy's own mind. We follow him through his journey to justify his actions and exorcise his inner demons, but we can see what is happening to Diddy only from inside his head, in the present, and the balance of his mind does not always bear close scrutiny.
