On Lust and Longing

When On Lust was first published in 1993 it caused a media sensation but despite being accused of writing lies that a pillar of society had molested children, d'Alpuget refused to speak in her own defence. On Longing caused a similar sensation, for different reasons. Both studies trace the timeless themes of the power and powerlessness inherent to lust, love, loss and death.

Cand On Lust a fost publicat pentru prima data in 1993, a provocat senzatie de presa, dar, in ciuda faptului ca a fost acuzat ca a scris minciuni ca un pilon al societatii a molestat copii, d'Alpuget a refuzat sa vorbeasca in propria sa aparare. Din dor a provocat o senzatie similara, din diferite motive.
