	Your Price : Rs 750.00

Incidents — published in French after Roland Barthes’ death—is a collection of four intimate texts that provide an insight into the author’s life, his personal struggles and delights. Barthes questioned the act of keeping a journal with the aim of having it published, but undertook the experiment in these four texts.

The title text, ‘Incidents’, is the revealing journal Barthes kept while he was living in Morocco; ‘The Light of the Southwest’ is an ode to the region in France the author loved so well; ‘At Le Palace Tonight’ describes a vibrant, unique Paris entertainment spot; and ‘Evenings in Paris’ are journal entries that reveal Barthes’ struggles, as an older gay man, with intimacy and his desire for young lovers.
