Capitalist Realism: Is There No Alternative?
by Mark Fisher
A very well written book. The amount of leftist jargon is kept to a minimum, which I think most readers will appreciate. Fisher defines "Capitalist Realism" by using Kafkaesque allegories to contemporary Britain, excerpts from Zizek and a few thinkers from the Frankfurt School. Indeed a lot of the work is different dialogues with other authors. This does not mean Fisher lacks any originality. He uses the dialogue to create a succinct argument. The book not only says "yes there is an alternative", but it creates a vision of how to escape capitalist realism.
