Jong, Erica, — Seducing the Demon: writing for my life.

NY, Tarcher, (2006). 1st ptg. VG in VG DJ. For more than 3 decades, Jong has revished the pants off literature's stuffiest stereotypes. Now in a memoir written. with the same sensuality, humor, and unprecedented honesty that made Fear of Flying a classic, Jong reveals her life as a writer: three decades of fame, derision, husbands, lovers, wine and some time sobriety. And through it all writing kept her sane. Refreshingly direct, writing sex scenes, evoking the ire of alcohol and grass in the search of ectasy, or revealing her fling with the (now former) of the world's most famous diva. Remainder marks.
