About the book
"In this intimate portrait of Edward Said, Dominique Edde , a close friend of the subject, offers a fascinating and fresh presentation of his oeuvre, from his earliest writings on Joseph Conrad to his most famous texts, Orientalism and Culture and Imperialism. Edde weaves together accounts of the genesis and content of Said's work, illustrating his intellectual development by drawing on her personal recollections of their long friendship, which began in 1979 and lasted until Said's death in 2003. Throughout, she traces the connection between personal history and theoretical positions. Both specialists of Said's work and newcomers will find must to learn in this rich portrait of one of the twentieth century's most important intellectuals."--Front jacket flap.
