A review by hieronymusbotched
America by Jean Baudrillard
4.0
Had to let this one sit for a bit. Baudrillard writes with extreme imprecision for a philosopher, which makes his ideas always feel just out of reach, but! That said, he's really just planting coordinates, and at an extended distance, you realize it's not random, but a fine mist of constellations.
I guess what I'm saying is that I think what he says has value, even though it isn't always laid out all that well, because every few pages things come together beautifully, and the world is in focus, if only for a few lines of prose.
