24/7: Late Capitalism and the Ends of Sleep by Jonathan Crary

2.0

Meandering, unfocused, sprawling, shallow. Obvious. I was hoping for a more nuanced and insightful discussion about the changing nature of sleep in late capitalism but this read more like your usual broad generalization about capitalism, changing media, and consumerist ennui typical of academics for sport. The writing hops all over the place and features plenty of gratuitous name dropping.
