Writing Against

Just finished this excellent biography of Jean-Paul Sartre. My only disappointment was that there was no mention of Topo Gigio anywhere, although apparently he did a passable impression of Donald Duck. I'm starting Les Mots next so let's hope there are some cartoon capers in that.

If I remember rightly Sartre did have childhood fantasies about rescuing maidens in distress, and later in life wasn't he pursued around town by a giant lobster? That must have been a bit of a caper, I imagine.
