About the book
Sita is a woman of temperament, wit, artistry and power. Foreign, seductive, full of contradiction. For her, Kate Millett was willing to hazard her art, her feelings, her life. To continue to love even when she knew the time for loving was long past. With total honesty, she relates the fascinating account of her obsession with the woman, Sita. And with beauty and sensitivity, she evokes for us the terrible - and familiar - sadness of the end of love.
