The Weaver Reads reviewed Postcapitalist Desire by Mark Fisher
Goodreads Review of Postcapitalist Desire: The Final Lectures
5 stars
This is Fisher at his most accelerationist. There's something haunting about reading this, given the text contains his last five lectures before he committed suicide in 2017. There's so much hope here about what postcapitalism could be. The book is also a great primer on critical theory, not as a reified body of texts from the past, but as something subversive that we can rely on today.
I wish Mark was still here.
