reviewed Ventriloquized Bodies: Narratives of Hysteria in Nineteenth-Century France on February 09, 2014 Ventriloquized Bodies: Narratives of Hysteria in Nineteenth-Century France
If you're looking for a comprehensive book on Cocteau, from his early life and early works to his later life and works, this book is nearly perfect. Two complaints: the book slips into scornfulness at times, and, secondly, doesn't quite understand how and why addiction to opium happens. However, other than that, this is a must-have book for anyone interested in Cocteau or looking for a resource book on the author for a school project.
