Goldmann -- of course the literary analysis chapter is the most dense for no reason 😂 I wouldn't say that there's anything particularly new here but I think I need to reread it to be sure. I will say that his predictions for the future are so far By Far the most accurate. When he was talking about the McDonaldization of higher ed fifty years before the term was even invented? Boy howdy.

Goodman - provoking ideas that would make me want to read more by him but his anti-Blackness is yikes level
