A review by jasminenoack
My Revolutions by Hari Kunzru

4.0

This is a great book. It's really boring which is impressive since the topic is actually not at all boring. Think weathermen in england. Actually at one point the book makes fun of the weather underground as rich posers who blew themselves up or something like that. There is something disconnected about the way that british people write, it never feels quite like they really care. Yeah sure he blew a bunch of things up but really that was some other person some other time.

Interestingly my revolutions doesn't refer to being a revolutionary. In the book he describes my revolutions as pacing in jail and walking meditations. and metaphorically my revolutions are the lives hat he lived. But it never really seems to refer to his revolutionary activity. In fact it seems a bit like those aren't his activities, those are things that happened to him, but he doesn't seem all that invested.

now that I've been pretentious and insulting and said almost nothing about the actual book go and read it.
