[Vik · Rating 4 out of 5]

Quite an interesting read for anyone who is interested in psychoanalysis, political ideology, and can tolerate weird Lacanian quantum physics :p

Great collection of writings. It’s easier to follow Zizek’s lines of thought in these shorter essays, although he’s still all over the place

a book to continually read
