review 1: Confuse, sometimes difficult to read, a miscellaneous of references and pop culture, so many topics mixed that can turn it a little bit misguiding.Yet, a very interesting read, with so many brilliant insights and clever passages which will utterly make readers rethink about many topics of contemporary politics and philosophy.To sum up, if this book has one big credit, it is due to its capacity to provoke and to make people engage critical thinking as an urgent task in our modern times. Zizek is still excellent in what he proposes to do: to shake people's minds and make them think differently about what seemed to be quite obvious.
review 2: Well its quite hard , ie realising why not a single one of ma friends liked. or from those that probably would, ha... mores been labeleled in such a derog-downright silly kind'a'way. Peerhaps in the end, my own mind, is also in the same mess Zizek´s is, but he seems to be in the perfect way to decipher the current chaotic condition, our world has currently stepped in, not that he offers straight cut answers, but at least he gives it a few serious tries. Such a maelstorm of examples, ranging from one history medium to the next.. At times his contorted history-political axioms medium ebbs away in sheer speculation-utter confusion . But then in a couple of pragraphs,( if U are still in a position to grab his meaning) You get such a profound sense of his ~personal realisation~ as if he has offered U a doorkey to his own perception, wrapped in teethers of his own multi-angled mind.. less
