OBAMA BIGGER THAN THE BEATLES

p. 19

my favorite emotions include 'brief calmness<br />in good weather' and 'i am the only person alive'<br />without constant reassurance i feel terribly lonely and insane<br />i have moved beyond meaninglessness, far beyond meaninglessness<br />to something positive, life-affirming, and potentially best-selling<br />i have channeled most of my anger into creating and sustaining an 'angry face'<br />i have picked up a medium-sized glass of coffee<br />and used it in the conventional way<br />because i am conventional in all situations, i'll be right back

My days are numbered.

Hello. Often this blog is not straightforward. I am leaving Pegasus Books, which has been wonderful and kind to me, to take all of myself rapidly across town to Small Press Distribution, where, go figure, they think need me. I knew I needed them approximately ages ago. My last night at Pegasus is June 13. Please come.

French Theory Cusset University of Minnesota Press

French Theory
How Foucault, Derrida, Deleuze, & Co. Transformed the Intellectual Life of the United States

François Cusset
Translated by Jeff Fort

University of Minnesota Press

“The Atlantic Ocean has two sides, and so does French Theory. Reinvented in America and betrayed in its own country, it has become the most radical intellectual movement in the West with global reach, rewriting Marx in light of late capitalism. Breathtakingly moving back and forth between the two cultures, François Cusset takes us through a dazzling intellectual adventure that illuminates the past thirty years, and many more decades to come.”

—Sylvère Lotringer
