Marxism: The Unity of Theory and Practice, Reissued with a New Introduction
Alfred G. Meyer
This essay on Berlant by @HZeavin is great. I especially liked the line about LB ‘braiding’ Marxism with a reworked psychoanalysis, but every paragraph here is smart and sharp and patiently composed, and in this way the writing meets LB with its own unintimidated voice. https://t.co/mGBz8gxFdE
