Thrilling April 18, 2003 8 out of 12 found this review helpful
One of the greatest books about the relevance of Marxism to the twentieth and twenty-first centuries ever written. A thrilling roller coaster ride about love in cafes, city planning, architecture, romance, how we work and how we live. Incomparable.
A Masterpiece on Modernity May 12, 1999 13 out of 18 found this review helpful
This book develops the idea that Modernity's defining characteristic is that of the continual reassertion of ambivalence. In light of this argument the author revisits writers such as Goete, Marx and Dostoevsky adding new dimensions to them all as well as to our understanding of Modernity. A book of tremendous wisdom and intelligence. Well written and highly recommended.
