Jean Genet from childhood understood what it means to be an outcast: abandoned by his mother at seven months, he grew up in state institutions for orphans, was convicted of theft and pimping. Already in prison, having received a life sentence, he began to write. Pornography and the open glorification of crime in his works were combined with a high, almost baroque literary style, thanks to which the talent of Jean Genet was recognized by Jean-Paul Sartre, Jean Cocteau and Simone de Beauvoir. Starting in 1970, he spent two years in Jordan, in Palestinian refugee camps. He was drawn to these restless people, and this attraction proved to be as difficult for him as it was durable. "Prisoner in Love," written a decade later, when many of the people Genet knew were killed and he himself was dying, is a vivid and powerful description of that historical period and people. Genet's most overtly political book has also become his most personal - this is the last step of his unrepentant blasphemous pilgrimage, full of insights, deception and contradictions, his endless search for answers to eternal questions about the role of power and about the path to himself full of temptations and mistakes. Genet's latest masterpiece is a lyrical and philosophical journey through the blood-stained alleyways of the modern world, where oppression, terror and lust reign.
