Postcapitalist Desire: The Final Lectures by Mark Fisher, Matt Colquhoun
3.0
A dense, melancholy collection of lectures that ends just as it really gets going. It's presents a serious of complex ideas tied together by a lengthy Introduction, nessecitated by the untimely death of its author.
At one point, in the introduction the author writes: "If only Mark Fisher were still here". This stands tall over the entire text, which hints at a greater conclusion that sadly never fully comes together. I liked this book, and it gave me a treasure trove of further readings both by Fisher and others. Yet it remains tragically incomplete.
