Publisher Description

Winner of the National Book Critics' Circle Award for Criticism.

One of the most highly regarded books of its kind, Susan Sontag's On Photography first appeared in 1977 and is described by its author as "a progress of essays about the meaning and career of photographs." It begins with the famous "In Plato's Cave"essay, then offers five other prose meditations on this topic, and concludes with a fascinating and far-reaching "Brief Anthology of Quotations."

This book does not Allow the option for user notes or underlining

My rating is for how this book, in particular, does not allow the user to make notes or underline where it is needed. When I use my iPad, iPhone, or MacBook Pro, this book app, unlike other books I have purchased, does not allow me to take notes or underline important information.
