About this title: This biography of the Argentinean writer Manuel Puig (1932-1990), author of KISS OF THE SPIDER WOMAN, was written by his friend and translator, Suzanne Levine. It stresses Puig's film-centered childhood, during which he saw a movie nearly every day; his discovery of his homosexuality; the diligence and discipline with which he practiced his art; and the air of mystery surrounding his death.
