I read this as part of my MA philosophy studies. I found it an interesting read. Challenging but captivating all the same.

Not so much a single argument as a braid of related thoughts, this is a brilliant, confused little book. The aphorisms, moment by moment, are capable of being enormously generative; reading this after a full summer of Foucault was especially fun. As a whole ... well, I can't help but read it as a theology, laugh at the many very funny jokes, and scratch my head at the methodological and argumentative gaps.
I'll give the man this, though. If we were all allowed to write like him, we'd have a less exact world, but quite possibly a better one.
