solid overview

Format:Paperback
this is a solid overview of the very expansive philosophy and thought of the Slovenian intellectual Slavoj Zizek. Zizek's writing is quite good, and his lectures and talks are even better, nevertheless the author manages to convey an entertaining narrative as succinctly as possible. And the illustrations are really fun. I picked this up, then read a couple of Zizek's books, and then came back to this to catch my bearings. I really can't recommend this enough.

Slavoj Zizek is a highly important thinker to understanding modern Marxist though and implicated of Freud and Lacan in modern culture. This book provides an easy-to-understand way way of thinking about his different modes of thought introduces throughout Zizek's books. The graphic novel side of this book isn't great, but it's a fun way to read about Zizek.
